You are warmly invited to come along to four Lent Reflections run by Rev Nicola which will take us into the world of Mother Julian of Norwich, a 14th century visionary. Written by Emma Pennington, ‘At the Foot of the Cross with Julian of Norwich’ is an accessible book which takes the reader into her world and considers the background to her visions and her writings. Easily available online, but if preferred we will have spare copies in the church, do come along for an hour each week to focus on her revelations and what it means for us. The first meeting is next Monday 19th at 11am in St Petrock’s.

A simple Lenten lunch will also be held in The Lion at 12.15pm next Monday 15th to which all are welcome, whether or not you have been to the Reflection held beforehand.
