The season of Lent begins on Wednesday 5th March, Ash Wednesday. Mass with imposition of Ashes takes place at 9.15am and 8pm, to begin our Lenten ‘campaign of Christian service’. The 9.15am Mass will be live streamed.
On Friday evenings during Lent we share in the devotion known as the Way of the Cross together with our Anglican neighbours at St Laurence’s Church, some weeks at St Joseph’s and some weeks over the road at St Laurence’s, starting at 7.30pm:
7th March: St Joseph’s
14th March: St Laurence’s
21st March: St Laurence’s
28th March: St Joseph’s
4th April: St Laurence’s
11th April: St Joseph’s
Pope Francis’s message to the whole church for this season of Lent during the Jubilee Year ‘Pilgrims of Hope’ can be found here.
You can read some suggestions on how to make the most of this season by following the practice of self-denial, prayer and alms-giving, in our parish newsletter.
