Blackfriars Partnership, Spirituality Team present, 'Being the Prodigal Child' in association with Open Gate.

'Being The Prodigal Child' is a reflection on Jesus' parable of the Prodigal Son experienced by women serving custodial sentences in Low Newton prison. The evening will be led by the team at Open Gate, a charity that works with women both during their sentence and after they have been released.

The evening will explore the Christian calling to become the Prodigal Child, which we will do through listening to personal reflections from some of the women at Low Newton prison, group discussions and finishing with a final blessing from Fr. Shaun.

The event takes place on Thursday 7 March between 6.30pm and 9.00pm at St. Robert's Church, Fenham, Newcastle upon Tyne.
