Lent

2023 – Worshipping God and serving the community.

In addition to our normal services, we invite you to join us for the Lent courses. We prepare to celebrate at Easter our salvation, brought by God’s wonderful resurrection of Jesus after his death.

Lent Courses:

‘Faith Hope and Destruction: Lent with the minor Prophets’   St Chad’s Church, Tuesdays at 11 a.m.
What hope is there in a world that appears to have taken leave of God and to be bent on self destruction?  This was the world the Jewish prophets lived in and the message that came through them to God’s people is as important now as it was then…
28th February Hosea—loving those that betray us. Here are the notes.
7th March Amos—When God’s patience runs out. Here are the notes
14th March Jonah– God loves everyone, but I am His favourite. Notes are here.
21st March Habbakuk-From fear to faith. Notes are here.
There is a sign up sheet for this course in St Chad’s Outer Vestibule to allow us to plan catering for lunch afterwards.

 “A Faith that Works” St Alkmund’s , Thursdays in March, 6.30 p.m.
