Lent

Lent gives us space to reflect, pray and think about our Christian hope, which is set in Jesus. There are lots of resources out there to choose from. This leaflet sets out a few ways we're supporting our congregation to explore their faith this Lent.

Details are below or you can download the leaflet for Lent here.

Ash Wednesday service:
22nd February at 2pm and 7.30pm

Quiet, reflective services, that will give us the space in the busyness of life to think about the season of Lent and to prepare for the journey to the cross and Jesus' resurrection.


Quiet afternoon:

Saturday 25th February, 12 to 4pm

The church will be set up with quiet activities and prayers for those coming to use as they like (or just enjoy the quiet and space). Our time will begin with a short talk and end with a simple Communion together.


Pilgrim Course: The Creeds
