Dear Reader,
I’m pleased to be back in touch with you again, after a break while I was away on mission in South Sudan. Enjoy listening to the sermon above…
May I invite you to begin a spiritual journey this Lent? Traditionally 40 days of prayer, fasting and almsgiving to prepare for Easter.
Ash Wednesday. Come to the 7.30pm Service with the ancient practice of the Imposition of Ashes. I hope you’ll enjoy feasting on pancakes today, Shrove Tuesday!
Now is the healing time decreed
for sins of heart and word and deed,
when we in humble fear record
the wrong that we have done the Lord.
(Latin, before 12th century)
We start our Lent Course on Thursday 13th March 7.30pm “321 Discover Life According to Jesus” - it’s four weeks long and will take us nicely to Easter.
We’ll also ‘clean house’ and pray during this season for healing of our church and land as we prepare for our post-Easter mission, when we will offer the 321 Course to our village communities.
Pick up a Living Hope booklet with 40 daily reflections and prayers for Adults or Children from church to help you with your personal daily Lent devotions. If you prefer a daily Living Hope email to your Inbox, or the App sign up here.
Wishing you a blessed and holy Lent.
Andrew
