PRAYER NET During Lent this will be a visual way in which we can offer our prayers and reflect on our Lenten journey as individuals and as a community. Each week everyone (young and old) is invited to take pieces of wool from the basket and tie them onto the small net which will be attached to the door at the back of the church - please do this as often as you like. There will be of a different colour to reflect the different weeks of Lent. Each small net will then be tied onto the large net to make the shape of a cross and will be suspended from the banner bar on Easter Day.
Part of Week 2's Prayer Net The themes for each week will be displayed around the prayer net, in the newsletter and below on this web site: Palm Sunday of the Passion of the Lord 28th March
Readings The Procession - Luke 19:28-40 Isaiah 50:4-7, Psalm 21, Phil 2:6-11, Luke 22:14-23:56
