On this second Sunday of Lent we meet in Flax Bourton church at 10am for “cafe church”, where we begin with refreshments and a catch-up, seated in small groups around tables. Music and prayers are informal, with the opportunity to talk about life and faith round our tables, and often a creative activity or interactive element – brilliant for those who prefer making or doing to listening. Cafe Church is informal, engaging and inclusive for all ages and stages of faith. Readings are Genesis 17:1-7, 15-16 and Mark 8: 31-38.
Each week during Lent, we’ll be exploring some simple ways in which we can put our faith into practice by cultivating some ‘Holy Habits’ which can help make space for God. This week we look at Scripture: how do you engage meaningfully with the texts of the Bible day by day? How does it shape your agenda? We’ll be sharing more in church on Sunday. |
