Ashford Town Parish would like to invite you to join our 2023 Lent course – The Lectio Course.
As a church community, the voice of God has to be at the heart of everything we do. Learning how to hear God is an exciting journey for every Christian to explore – and the Lectio Course is going to help us do just that.
Pete Greig, from 24-7 Prayer, will help us to explore Lectio Divina and incorporate it into our life of prayer. Lectio Divina is an ancient spiritual practice – a prayerful way of reading the Bible that allows for God to speak to us through scripture in powerful ways.
The Lectio Course is a 5-part series created to help individuals and communities learn to hear God through praying the Bible. Each of the five sessions includes a short video, a discussion guide, and a practical activity for small groups to explore together. To watch the Lectio Course trailer, click on the link below:
How to sign up: Across our Parish, most of our churches are offering The Lectio Course through their own network of small groups. Chat with your local clergy to find out more, and if you’re not already part of a home group you’re welcome to join one within your own church context for Lent. If you are unable to get to a local small group, Rev Jo will be hosting The Lectio Course on zoom on Wednesdays, 11am-12.30pm, commencing on 8th March and concluding on 5th April. Please contact her to book your place - jo.purle@ashfordchurches.co.uk
We’re so excited to be learning and growing together in our Parish journey of prayer.
