Some people like to tune into the Home Service while others prefer the Light programme.  We are all different and have different likes and preferences.
This year we shall be offering a choice of Lent Course.
One will be held on Mondays in Lent in the Vicarage Study and the other on Wednesdays in the St. Mary's Church Rooms.

See below for details of the two courses.
 

MONDAYS IN LENT AT 7.30p.m. ON THE LORD'S PRAYER

        11th FEBRUARY - Our Father

        18th FEBRUARY - Thy Will be done

        25th FEBRUARY - Our Daily Bread

Sarah Openshaw's will be on Wednesdays in the church rooms at 7.30 p.m.

As Lent 2008 comes hard on the heels of new year, with its well meaning resolutions probably abandoned at the first hurdle, we are perhaps by now beginning to wonder what life is all about, what are we here for?  As we race through life at a punishing pace, we need time to reflect and think, to reassess our lives and our priorities. What is it that God wants us to do?  Attending a course in Lent gives us the chance to stop, think and reflect.

This Lent course is based on the book called 'Life Calling', which looks at our "vocation". Don't be put off by the word "vocation" it is only what God wants us to do with the unique skills he has given us.  The trick is to find out what that is!  The course is innovative in its approach, using clips from the film Billy Elliot as well as some excellent activities and discussion topics.  We will also learn together how to keep a spiritual journal, as we edge towards becoming the people we were made to be.

Dates:
Wednesday evenings at 7.30 - 9.00 in the Church Rooms
13th February, 20th February, 27th February, 5th March and 12th March

Please could you let me know if you would like to come so I can order enough books (£4.50 each)
