Join us to look a little more deeply into the gospel readings for the Sundays in Lent. All the sessions will take place on Wednesdays and last approximately 45 minutes. We will listen to the gospel reading, ask questions about the text and allow time to reflect on what this means for us. Choose either in person or online sessions or a mix.
Daytime in person sessions, 10.45am in the Church Room at St John’s. You are welcome to attend the midweek service of Holy Communion beforehand or arrive in time for the discussion session.
Evening online sessions, 7.30pm on Zoom.
