The second Sunday of Lent, and the Gospel at the Parish Eucharist, taken from Luke, tells of Jesus predicting the events of Easter, and preparing to leave Galilee and go up to Jerusalem to his destiny. In his sermon Father Stephen talked about the value of quiet prayer, which Jesus instructs us to use. The next  Lent Group meeting will be a period of quiet prayer, at the Vicarage on Thursday March the 14th. at 7:30pm Do come along and find out more. The Choir sang Hide Not Thou thy Face a setting of part of Psalm 27 music by Farrant edited by Greening as the anthem.
