The Quiet Garden at All Saints’ offers a place
where you can spend some time in quiet reflection. You will
find it in the north east corner of the church. On the table you
will find some suggestions for prayer. As well as providing a place
for individuals it is also used by small groups for worship.
The garden reflects the seasons and the life of the church, so at Easter, a time of great celebration; it is full of flowers; at other times during Lent for example, the period of preparation leading up to Easter, it is quite bare.
Our Quiet Garden is affiliated to The Quiet
Garden Movement. It is unusual in that it is indoors whereas
most are outdoors. The majority are in private homes and
gardens and offer a local opportunity for people to take some time
out to discover the riches of
Christian meditation. The
Movement started in a home in Stoke Poges, Bucks and has spread to
many countries around the world. Churches, schools, hospitals
and prisons are also providing dedicated quiet spaces. You can
