Worship Leader: We gather together in Jesus’ name All: Help us to explore, discover and learn together
Getting ready for Easter takes a very long time – 40 days. These are called the forty days of Lent. Jesus also took forty days to get ready for his special ministry. He spent that time in the desert (wilderness) alone.
Shrove Tuesday and Ash Wednesday mark the beginning of Lent How shall we remember Lent and prepare for Easter?
This week’s Lent Challenge Bishop Stephen and Bishop David are challenging us to do something special each week for Lent. This will help us get ready properly for Easter. Easter is the most special day of the whole year for Christians.
God our Father, Help us to follow Jesus’ example through all the days of Lent as we hear his story and listen to his message. Be with us as we perform our Lent challenges and help us to remember that we are not doing them just to win an award, but to help us be more like Jesus. Amen
Worship Leader: Go in peace to discover God’s world and your place in it. All: We go in Jesus’ name
