Weekly Newsletter 17th Feb

Dear friends,

I do hope you are having a good week so far. For many of us it is half term so we have the extra noise and excitement that having little ones close by brings.

We’ve had a great response so far of people signing up to join our Lent group this year. In fact, we are now going to be hosting a second group because of the interest. Naomi and I will still be hosting one group on Wednesday evenings at the vicarage. Additionally, there will be a second group which runs on Tuesday afternoons from 3:30pm which will be in Aldworth (beginning on 7th March). This allows us to offer a daytime and an evening option for people - and it really is for everybody. So if you’ve already signed up and would prefer a daytime session please let me know. If you haven’t yet signed up to join us and would like to, then do get in touch with me and we can pop your name down. A new 2 minute trailer is below which I hope will whet your appetite and excite you about this season.

Next Wednesday 22nd February is Ash Wednesday which marks the beginning of Lent. We will be holding a reflective Holy Communion service at St. Clement’s Ashampstead, where we will offer the imposition of ashes (ashes on foreheads) as we enter the Lenten season. Everybody is really welcome to join us for this service.

As always, if there is anything we can be praying about specifically for you and your loved ones at the moment please don’t hesitate to let me know.

Love,

Grant
