People from parishes across the Diocese participated in the 'National Day of Prayer and Action' on Sunday, lighting a candle in their windows at 7pm.

The candle symbolises Jesus as the ‘light of the world’.

A small selection on pictures from social media is on this page and more can be seen on our Twitter feed with a story about the day of prayer on our Diocesan website (with video).
