The Church of England's theme this Lent is 'Draw Near.' In Lent we journey with Jesus on the difficult and thorny road that leads all the way to the Cross on Good Friday and to The Resurrection on Easter Day.

Over 5 weeks the Lent course guides us through reflections, Bible readings, questions for discussion and prayers. At 5.15pm you may want to join us as we eat our own sandwiches etc, have a cuppa along with conversations, this is optional.

The course starts at 6.00pm and will finish no later than 7.30pm, please see below the day and dates for the course, we will meet in the upstairs meeting room.

All are welcome.

St Peter's

Why not join us on our journey as we begin to understand God's purpose for us and develop our faith, our understanding of the bible and discover God’s love for us all.

All are welcome as we journey together.</span>
