The Prayer Wall
This work of art displays the collaborative efforts of York-based artists Patrick Sells and Cliff Meyer. It is created for personal, interactive use.
We invite you to write out your prayer, roll it like a scroll, and in simple faith, place it in one of the holes in the wall.
Your prayers are precious to Jesus, and to your church family. Our pastoral team will be regularly praying for these requests.
