Lent Course 2026: Walking Holy Week with the Disciples

Our Lent Course: Lent 2026: Walking Holy Week with the Disciples

Have you ever wondered what the disciples were thinking during the events from Palm Sunday to Easter Day? This year’s Lent course is offering a chance to walk with the disciples as they move through the events of that week with Jesus. We use the Gospels to try and understand their thoughts and feelings as they watched and worked with Jesus following his entry into Jerusalem. 

The sessions are based on ideas in the book: Notes on an Execution by Rhidian Brook (2025, SPCK) but rewritten and adapted for our Chaplaincy. The book itself is very interesting, ending with a series of meditations on Good Friday and the thoughts of the two disciples on the road to Emmaus. Our course walks towards Good Friday, piecing together the thoughts of the disciples from the Gospel stories and then there will be a final session after Easter when we look at the responses of the disciples to the resurrection.

The course will start the week after Ash Wednesday and will be held in person and online. The in person sessions are being held on Tuesdays at 10:00 or 18:30. The online sessions are being held on Wednesdays at 18:30.

Please let Jackie know if you are interested in either the online or in person version. Come and join us on our walk with the disciples and Jesus as we journey through Lent.
