LENT 2011


Throughout Lent we will all reading through the gospel of Matthew together.  There are around 25 verses to read each day and by the end of Lent we will end up with the crucifixion on Good Friday and the resurrection on Easter morning.

 

The idea of all doing it together is so that when we come together we can discuss what we have learnt or if we get stuck or find things confusing we can ask others what they think.

 
The schedule of readings is laid out below.  You’ll notice that Sundays are green and Wednesdays are grey…..

 

On Wednesdays we will be encouraging one another to fast and pray.  I have put together a little teaching on fasting, which I hope you will find useful.  To explore more about Fasting click here.
 

On Sundays we will have talks from either the readings in the preceding week or from the Sunday reading.  The good news is there is no fasting on Sundays! The 40 days of Lent does not include Sundays which are a day to celebrate the resurrection…..!

We also have a few tips on how to read the bible.  To find out more click here.
