Benefice Lent Course
Christians traditionally use the season of Lent as a time to study and reflect on their faith, echoing Christ’s 40 days in the wilderness. This year the Diocese of Winchester has published a course: Witness – Living the Mission of Jesus. In five 90 minutes sessions people taking part will learn how to articulate the Gospel and explain it to others; understand how speaking about the Gospel helps us to know it better and recognise how the good news of Christ Jesus is rooted in the Gospels and the book of Acts.
We will run the course in the Benefice on consecutive weeks as shown below. Anyone is welcome to take part at any venue:
All Saints: Restharrow, Upper Clatford, Monday afternoons 3-4.30pm from Mon 15 Feb.
St Mary: April Cottage, Abbotts Ann, Tuesday evenings 7.30-9pm from Tue 16 Feb.
St Peter: The Beehive, Goodworth Clatford, Wednesday evenings 7.30-9pm from Wed 17 Feb.
Contact Nicky Judd (729075), Peter Eastwood (353320) or Tim Tayler (710201) or visit the Diocesan website at www.winchesterlent.org for more details.
For people who would like to undertake further study or cannot join a group then there is material suitable for adults and children that can be used at home by individuals and families.
