Hello Lent

This month's photo was taken in St Sebastian's Churchyard. We were blessed to recieve a grant from South Kesteven District Council to buy more bulbs to enable the Churchyard to be a haven for people and wildlife. In the next few years, once they establish, it should be a wonderful place to walk. Many thanks to Philippa for all her hard work.

We might be tempted to think that participating in Lent is old fashioned or a bit stale!

But Lent is a wonderful opportunity to deepen our relationship with God, to root our spirituality in new ground! All of which transform our faith life and relationship with God.

For this reason, giving has traditionally been an aspect of Lent. There are many different ways to give during Lent.

As last year we are hosting Lent lunches, please see the details below. All the money raised will be given to charity.
