On Sunday 6th March over 100 people from churches across Dorchester gathered at the War Memorial at 3pm and joined in prayer for Ukraine. The gathering was organised by Churches Together.
Whilst, in Weymouth, the Town Council asked the community to come together for a period of reflection. Around 100 folk attended the gathering at the Jubilee Clock on the Esplanade, which has been described as touching and emotional.
Pastor Mark Topp from Dorchester’s Storehouse Church told KeeP 106: “As the current chair of Churches Together in Dorchester I was really encouraged by the response of churches and their congregations across the town. To see Christians from various denominations and streams of Christianity coming together in unity to pray was both inspiring and humbling.
“This was the first of many responses from The Churches Together in Dorchester. Many churches have taken up special collections for aid and many members of various congregations are volunteering and supporting local efforts of support.”
Thanks to Mark Topp for the picture below which shows the folk gathered at the War Memorial.
