LENT COURSE FOR 2021
The Oxford Diocese is offering to send an email reflection for each day in Lent, beginning from Ash Wednesday, 17th February. You can register to receive them on the Diocesan website here:-
How to ask deep questions of faith (anglican.org)
They are based on a new book by the Bishop of Oxford, Pilgrim Journeys: The Creeds - 40 days of reflections. Printed and e-book versions can be bought here:-
Pilgrim Journeys: The Creeds single copy by Steven Croft, The Archbishop of Canterbury, The Archbishop of York - Paperback / softback (chpublishing.co.uk)
This will also be the basis for this year's Lent course, which begins on Tuesday evening, 23rd February at 8pm.
The material will be the Lent resources provided by the diocese - 'Come and See'. It includes material, which people can use individually, and group material that we are planning to use for the weekly virtual Lent discussion group via Zoom.
There will be five sessions held on Tuesday evenings from 8.00pm – 9.00pm:-
23rd February:- Session 1: I Believe in God, Father Almighty
2nd March:- Session 2: I Believe in Jesus Christ (next Tuesday - Mar. 2
