A London-based Christian group is offering stress-relieving meditation to city workers. At St Mary Woolnoth’s Church – opposite Bank Tube station and the Bank of England – the Moot monastic community put up banners declaring ‘Free Meditation’ to those who are ‘stressed in the city’. In a nearby pub, city workers share a drink or meal while a group of people meet in a back room for talks based on bigger questions around life, God and spirituality. ‘Britain needs primary evangelism more than ever,’ said Bishop Graham Cray, commenting on the initiative, ‘but there can be no “quick fix”. It requires an imaginative and long-term, incarnational, engagement, meeting people where they are.’
