Take FiveThe Revd Chris Morley, a retired Methodist minister in our circuit, publishes a daily video Take Five. Each short daily thought is a suggestion for how we might grow spiritually and come closer to God by reflecting that day on a particular theme. Chris writes: 'I'm inviting people to Take Five minutes each day to join me. I hope if you do, you will find it a contribution to the deepening of your faith during these strange days.' Daily Hope - free 24-hour phone line This national phone line brings worship and prayer into people's homes while church buildings are closed.
