Lent – An invitation to be transformed by God

Lent begins on Ash Wednesday – Wednesday 2nd March – and we’ll be having a special Ash Wednesday Service at 7pm at All Saints to begin this season together.

Lent is a season where we are invited to take time away from some of the distractions of life, to draw closer to God and to be transformed.

This Lent we want to invite you to do just that, by prayerfully identifying ‘one thing’ that God wants to transform in you to make you more like Jesus, and then to pray for God to transform you, by His grace, and to commit to playing your part in acting and living differently in this area.

To help each of us do this we’ve created a special ‘Lent Daily Prayer’ which can be downloadad as a pdf here: Lent Daily Prayer Hard copies are also available from church. We also have a version of the Daily Prayer which you can watch and listen to here.

And Dave explains more about this invitation in the video here.

We invite you to join us in taking up this opportunity this Lent, and do let us know your stories of how God transforms you in these weeks as we open ourselves to him afresh.

 

And we…are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit. (2 Corinthians 3:18)
