Justin Welby Instagram – Grateful to have spent a fantastic day in @hereforddiocese at the weekend, talking all about prayer to mark the end of the Diocese’s Year of Prayer. We engaged together in prayer, through contemplation, art, on the streets of Hereford and in the 24-hour prayer space. Prayer is foundational to our relationship with God and there are many rich and fulfilling ways in which to pray. During the day, as I joined the weekly service of Prayers for Peace at @hfdcathedral, we heard a beautiful Poem for Peace from Sasha, a Ukrainian student. Prayer means coming to God and saying, ‘I can’t do it alone. I’m completely dependent on you, even for my next breath.’ That dependence on God takes us into his presence. To be a Christian means to be caught up in the love of God. Photos 1, 2, 3 and 5 credit: Lewis Markey
