LENT COURSE FOR 2026
The six-week Lent Course will follow the course which the Oxford Diocese has been running during Lent for the last few years. The full details appear on the diocesan website.
"COME AND SEE"
Each Lent, “Come and See” delves into a new aspect of Christian faith - this year will be looking at the Eucharist - or Holy Communion. It's perfect for new and old Christians alike. Those who sign up will receive a short email each day during Lent, Monday to Saturday, and on Sundays there is a short video from Bishop Steven exploring the theme for Come and See in a bit more detail. Come and See starts on Ash Wednesday, 18th February.
