Ecumenical Lent Groups
The Ecumenical Lent Groups that are
arranged annually by Churches Together in Bognor Regis and District are
a much valued opportunity for Christians from the different churches
across the town to meet together in fellowship and jointly undertake
some bible based study. This year just under one hundred of us in ten
groups will be using the new York Course “When I Survey…Christ’s cross
and ours” and we hope to have a good time, meet some new friends, and
find that this material gives us a deeper understanding of the faith we
share. As with previous York Courses, this one includes a well written
and presented Study Booklet for all those who participate. I shall again
be leading and hosting one of the groups.
Wednesday Evening Services in Church Sunday Evening Services 6:00pm on 7th,14th*, 21st, 28th March The Cross: Meditations on a Theme
Each week a famous picture or sculpture of the Cross will be portrayed and this will provide a focus for readings, prayers and a short address. (*14th March will be our normal Choral Evensong
format) The final meditation will be done in the Good Friday Liturgy which will follow a traditional service pattern as part of the Liturgy for Holy Week. These meditations will help us as we observe the Stations of the Cross and on Good Friday. 7:30pm Tuesday 9th March 2010 St. Mary's Church Felpham Talk by The Rev. Canon
Andrew White
The talk will take place in St. Mary’s church at 7.30pm and there will be coffee and biscuits to follow. Because of the nature of this event I would very much like to open it up to all the churches in Bognor Regis and district. The church can accommodate 300 people at most, so seating is at a premium. If you, and members of your congregation would like to join us, please could I ask you to contact my secretary by 19th February 2010 to indicate the number of seats you require. We will do all we can to accommodate as many as possible. An A4 poster is attached, which we hope will be useful to promote the
evening. If you would like more information about Andrew and his work,
please do visit www.frrme.org. the website of The Foundation for Relief
and Reconciliation in the Middle East. We look forward to welcoming you to St Mary’s. Fr. Timothy Peskett, Rector, St. Mary’s Church in Felpham
