LENT COURSE 2025
This year, we are offering six, 90-minute weekly sessions of the excellent course “On Purpose” by the LICC (click here to find out more) during Lent. Over 40 days, we get to grips with the Bible’s view of purpose, and read true stories of how that purpose is worked out in all kinds of Christians’ lives today. Each week, we explore a different theme:
Purpose in work
Purpose in family
Purpose in friendship
Purpose in our interests
Purpose in our neighbourhoods
Finally, in Holy Week you’ll prepare for Easter with an examination of how Jesus reveals his true purpose in the days before his crucifixion. This journey comes with small group questions and videos to prompt discussion around each week’s theme. Please join us!
To sign up, please complete this online form or pick up a paper copy from the back pew in church.
