Lent 2021

Lent is traditionally a time when we take stock, notice, set right and prepare for Easter. It may be a little different this year but its a time when we try to set aside a bit of time for ourselves and focus on things that matter. Not all of us do this the same way or at the same speed but it is a journey, not an event, that we all travel together.

To help you with this we have prepared a number of FREE resources for all ages, tastes, approaches and backgrounds that we hope will aid you on this journey. You can connect with others, engage and journey Lent with the support others and share them on to others Feel free to share the invite, download, print and share on any that you find useful and have a great Lent!!
