Venue

We are encouraged to put down deep roots of hope by connecting with God who is with us at all times. In Lent
we journey with Jesus on the difficult and thorny road that leads all the way to the cross on Good Friday – and
beyond, to the transformation of Easter Day.
God invites us to bring to him our own journey through everyday life. In the disappointment of daily setbacks
and the pain of deeper hurts, we discover that God is present with us. And God promises a future where all
things are healed and made new.
You can follow the reflections in a Living Hope reflection booklet which will be available in each church.
Alternatively you can read and listen to them by downloading the Everyday Faith app.
There will also be a Lent Course of 7 weekly evening meetings in Lympstone Church from 7 to 8.30 based on the
reflections.
