The season of Lent is now on us and please take the opportunity to read our March Bulletin which is available now as a full colour download or a printed monochrome copy. This year there will be a series of services on Sunday Evenings at 6pm called Meditations on the Cross. Artists paintings of the crucifixion will be displayed with readings from the Bible and appropriate poems and prose passages will be read. These will help us enter into the significance and meaning of the Stations of the Cross and the Good Friday Liturgy between 2pm and 3pm. The 14th March will see the celebration of Mothering Sunday at which we have invited the parents of children who have been baptized in the last three years. This will be a joyful and special occasion. This will replace the Family Eucharist on 21st March. Whilst Lent can be seen as a sombre season of reflection and repentance it is also a time to do study and acts of prayer to deepen our faith in Jesus our Lord and Saviour. I commend the
Lent
programme to you. It is with great sadness I record the passing of two stalwarts of our church - John Hayward and our verger Ron Thomas. May they rest in peace and rise in glory. Every Blessing Father Andrew
