Most of us are taking down the decorations and cleaning up after New Year but for many this is a good time to start thinking about the resources you might need for Lent. This year Lent runs from Wednesday 6th March until Saturday 20th April (liturgically speaking, it finishes before that – in the West, usually on the evening of Maundy Thursday).
Lent is traditionally a time of penitence and fasting, but it doesn’t have to be all sackcloth and ashes! There are many creative ways to get engaged with this special season.
Over the next few weeks, we’ll be recommending some of the resources that we have in stock here in the RRC and suggesting a few activities that might help you engage with Lent in a slightly different way.
Do take part – we’d love to know what you think!
