LENT STUDY COURSES

Occurring
Every Tuesday at for 2 hours, 30 mins
Venue
Monks Eleigh, St Peter
Address
Church Hill Monks Eleigh Ipwich, IP7 7LG, United Kingdom

Throughout Lent we will be offering a Lent Study Course at The Rectory on 5 Tuesdays during this time. The course will start at 2pm and end at 4.30pm.

This Lent we will be following the Church of England's Lent theme "Watch and Pray". This course invites us all to wait expectantly for God to meet us and sustain us through the storms and trials we all face.

On the night he was betrayed Jesus kneels in darkness in the garden of Gethsemane. Though he pleads with his disciples "Stay here with me...Watch and Pray", they all fall asleep, leaving him alone in his hour of deepest suffering.

This Lent we are encouraged to draw on the wisdom of Black Spirituality, particularly the practice of 'tarrying' (waiting) as a community to draw closer to Jesus and to each other.

For each day in Lent the "Watch and Pray" booklets offers a Bible verse, a short reflection, an idea for 'watching' and a prayer. It invites us to seek God in both familiar and unfamiliar places; in darkness and in quiet; in movement and in migration; in the healing and transforming of the Spirit; in the weeping of Holy Week and in the joy of Easter morning

If you would like to attend this course please contact Rev Mike Birt on 01449740623

A Church has existed on this site for 900 years although the present building dates back to the 14th century.
