LENT 2021
Please click on this link to hear a lament based on Psalm 42 and 43 - written by Rev Clare Dean and read by her from the banks of the River Blythe:

This year as we are all in lock down and isolation we thought it would be good to use this time during Lent to be reflective and to immerse ourselves deeper in to God's word in a guided way that is encouraging and uplifting. so rather than meeting up, which is not possible, for group discussion, we will offer what is called a 'retreat in daily life'. Let us all take this opportunity to deepen and invigorate our faith and get closer to God.
There will also be a chance to meet up in groups and discuss this Lent book.
It is available from Amazon and other online stores. it is the book the Archbishop of Canterbury will be reading this Lent.
It has 7 chapters, we hope to read a chapter a week and meet up over Zoom on Sunday nights at 7pm to share and discuss the questions at the end of each chapter that would be great... The link is to the right of this paragraph.
If you are a member of our congregation who hasn't been receiving emails from us but would like to keep in touch, then please let our Parish Administrator have your email address and we will add you to our contact list.
