This year during Lent and Easter we are reflecting on the themes of “Living Hope”. We are encouraging you to deepen your roots by connecting with God.
The Lent we invite you to journey with us as we follow in the footsteps of Christ’s final days. We hope you will take time to reset and rediscover your roots through a period of prayer, reflection and sacrifice.
As well as marking the crucifixion and resurrection, we at St Mary’s treat Lent as a period of reflection and prayer, to this end we will be running a daytime and evening prayer group throughout Lent.
Our doors are open to you this Lent and Easter. We look forward to sharing reflections and celebrations with you.
