NEW YEAR @ ST LAWRENCE JEWRY
GOD IN THE CITY - an exciting new initiative in the City to show the relevance of the teaching of Christ in the modern world
Simply asking if there is a "meaning" to life may miss the point - "meaning" makes sense only when you can relate to your fellow human beings through your actions and thoughts, and you realise your own uniqueness and value through your Creator
This new Bible study/Discussion series will - we hope - make you think about your life, your personal values and priorities, and your future. All welcome.
The weekly sessions start on Wednesday, February 15, and will take place over five weeks. Watch this website for more details.

St Lawrence Jewry is the official church of the Lord Mayor of London and the City of London Corporation and stands in the Yard of the Guildhall.
It was re-built by Sir Christopher Wren after the Great Fire of 1666, but there has been a church on the site for around 900 years.
After extensive damage in the Second World War, it was again re-built.
We are here to show the love of Christ to those who live and work in the City of London, and we seek to be welcoming to the many people who pass through our doors.
The church is open from 8am to 6pm, Monday to Friday.
Come and visit us soon. You will find a fascinating building to look round, and somewhere to stop, be still, think and pray; a place of tranquility in an area of world commerce and business. We have a number of resources to aid you in this, for more information read about the Tower Chapel.
Services
Our main service of the week is Holy Communion on Friday lunchtimes from 1.15 - 1.45pm. Everyone is welcome to attend this service, which takes place in the Side Chapel using Common Worship Order One.
Morning Prayer is also said every day, from 8.30 - 9.00am, in the Tower Chapel.
We extend a special welcome to you to join us at these services if you have not visited us before.
Open House Weekends
St Lawrence will be opening its doors once again for Open House weekends in 2012. Please watch this website for details.
