The start of Lent is under a month away so it is time to think about whether you will be doing something special to observe this season of the Church calendar. Traditionally lots of people, whatever their beliefs, use this as a time to give up something for 40 days - chocolate, smoking, alcohol etc - which is good especially if the saved money is given to do some good in the world. However, within the Church it is also a time to do something extra to deepen our faith. This year we are spoilt for choice in our benefice with 4 Lent Courses and a Book Group to choose from. Details are contained in two of the attached posters. All these groups are open to anyone, so please choose whichever one you like, regardless of who is organising it or where it is being held. Each group will benefit from having a cross section of people attending.
