The Archbishop of Canterbury leads a farewell service for the Anglican Sisters who have lived at Lambeth Palace for the past 25 years supporting its daily life of prayer, Lambeth Palace Crypt, 11 December 2013.
Also present were two members of the Chemin Neuf community who will be moving into Lambeth Palace next month to continue the religious life of prayer that supports the Archbishop's ministry.
Archbishop Justin, who has made the renewal of prayer and religious communities a priority for his ministry, said there are many 'myths' about living in such communities.
'One is that it’s comfortable. The second is that it’s an escape. It’s anything but an escape; it’s the opposite of an escape.
'You’re living in community, you’re with people, praying together, you see very aspect; it’s not an escape. And all the spiritual trials and temptations that people face are concentrated in a community, and it’s really demanding.
Archbishop Justin said prayer and religious communities experience renewal, it is an underlying sign of people 'taking risks' with the existence of God. 'Saying we’re going to throw ourselves into the void and see what happens, and see if God shows up.’

Prayer flags, called as “lung ta” and “Darchor”, are inscribed with Buddhist incantations, symbols and dictums. Traditionally they are composed of five colours: yellow, green, red, white and blue each signifying five elements earth, water, fire, wind and sky respectively.
In Darjeeling and Sikkim they are sometimes uttered as lungdar or dharju.
Prayer flags can be of two different types: one is mounted on a vertical pole or bamboo and another is fluttered on a hilltop/roof top with the help of ropes.
Both the words “Lung ta” and "Darchor" are said to be Tibetan in origin, the former meaning wild horse while latter translating to good fortune of all sentient being. Besides Tibetans the use of prayer flags are also common amongst other communities like Tamang, Sherpa, Lepcha, Dukpa, Yolmo, Bhutia. etc.

We did a week of 24-7 prayer last week. It was a good time. The guys who set up the room did an amazing job of turning a pretty dingy place into a bit of sacred space.
I loved the week, it was especially cool to watch people really getting in to it and meet with God in a different way.

At the Wild Goose Pagoda there was a huge board covered in these prayers. I'm not sure if the monks do anything with them, or if they just stay there for a time?
