Fr Gaston Forbah Afah, Parish Priest for English Martyrs, Reading, and Episcopal Vicar For Evangelisation, has put together some resources to inspire and support people through Lent.
- Lent Retreat with Newman
- Good Habits
- The Metanoia Retreat
- We Dare to Ask: A Lenten Resource from the Archdiocese of Southwark. This Lenten resource invites parishioners to prepare their hearts and minds to renew their Baptismal promises during the Easter celebrations. But for ease the whole document can be found here. Each week has also been split to give each of the sessions its own page:
Each week should be highlighted in the weekly CBCEW newsletter as well. If you or your team have not as yet signed up to the newsletter, you can do so here: Newsletter Sign-up – Catholic Bishops’ Conference
