Our Lent Course takes place each Thursday in Lent at 7.30pm in the Lady Chapel in church. It is based on #LiveLent: Care for God's Creation, the Church of England's Lent campaign for 2020. The weekly themes are shaped around the account of creation in the first chapter of Genesis and explore the urgent need for humans to value and protect it.
Inspired by the Archbishop of Canterbury's 2020 Lent Book, "Saying Yes to Life" by Ruth Valero, each week the course will look at at a different aspect of creation. There will be a reflection on a reading from the Bible, points for discussion and time for prayer. There will also be suggested actions to help us live in harmony with God, our neighbours and with nature.
The themes will be:
Week 1 - Light and energy
Week 2 - Water
Week 3 - Land and plants
Week 4 - Stars and seasons
Week 5 - Creatures of sea and sky
Week 6 - Humans and other animals
