Description
Lent is a time when the days are lengthening and the sun is strengthening. After the winter there is a feeling of brightness and hope, a we move towards the great celebration of Easter and the promise that life is eternal.
The services in this book reflect this increasing light, with a short Litany on Ash Wednesday and throughout Lent, which becomes a candle lighting on Easter Day to Pentecost, symbolising that without Christ we would remain in the dark.
The services are designed to enable both young and old to commit their lives to God and rejoice in this great season.
