As Epiphany draws to a close it is worth taking note of some of the progamme of worship as building towards Lent.
Sunday services in Lavenham will be at 8am (Book of Common Prayer) and 10.15 (Common Worship).
Our sister church at Preston St Mary will be holding services at the following times:
5th Feb. Book of Common Prayer Service at 9am
12th Feb. Book of Common Prayer Service at 6pm
19th Feb. Common Worship Morning Prayer service at 9am
26th Feb. Passion Sunday (First Sunday in Lent) Evensong (Book of Common Prayer) at 6pm.
Ash Wednesday
Ash Wednesday, 22nd Feb. Lavenham Church will be celebrating Holy Communion at 7.30pm. Traditionally, ash from the burned palm crosses from the previous year’s Palm Sunday is applied in the form of the Cross to the foreheads of worshipers at the Ash Wednesday service, known as 2the Imposition of Ashes”. This will, of course, be optional to all who attend.
Lent Course
This year’s lent Course begins on Monday the 27th of Feb, at 9.45am in Lavenham Village Hall. More details to follow but, anticipating and interesting and engaging programme of discussions, you are warmly and enthusiastically encouraged to take part!
