Welcome to Irenaeus.

A place of stillness and prayer.

A place where every person is held in the gentle welcome of God.​

​

Whoever you are and whatever your life holds, you are welcome in this place.

You do not need to arrive certain or confident.

You do not need to have everything sorted.

Simply come as you are and rest for a while.

​

We believe God is already moving quietly within every life.

Our hope is to offer spaces where you can notice that presence, listen for it and allow it to deepen.

Spaces for prayer, reflection and healing.

Spaces where burdens can be set down and new beginnings can unfold.

​

We try to be a community shaped by gentleness and hope.

We listen with compassion.

We hold the joys and sorrows of life with tenderness.

We encourage one another to recognise and share our God given gifts for the good of all.

 

Whether you come with faith, questions, wounds or longing...

Whether you feel close to God or far away...

Whether your story carries light, shadow or both...

You are welcome in this place.

​

Whatever your background - young or old, LGBTQ+ or straight, single, married, divorced or widowed, a seeker, a returner, a lifelong believer or someone simply looking for a quiet space to breathe - 

You are welcome in this place.​

​

Whatever your circumstances - housed or homeless, employed or unemployed, healthy or unwell, grieving, hopeful, anxious, rebuilding or beginning again -

You are welcome in this place.

​

Here there is room for your story.

Here there is space for your breath.

Here you are not alone.
