Titanic Watchnight service - intro

To mark the 110th anniversary of the sinking of Titanic in real time, and Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane this Maundy Thursday, this starts our 2 hr 40 min silent vigil.


Pray for the world, your own concerns, and think on these events; and ask for peace, understanding and healing


Another piece will appear at 219am to close our time


Feel free to just sit on this site, or join me silently (audio only) on a call for any length of time
