Lent at St Joseph's

Lent begins with Ash Wednesday on 14th February.

Masses for Ash Wednesday will be at 9.00am and 7pm. Please note the slightly earlier time of morning Mass, which will be celebrated by Fr Francis from St Cuthbert’s as Fr Alex is away. Evening Mass will be celebrated by Fr Jereus.

The Liturgy Committee have planned a full programme for Lent.

Every Friday evening during Lent we will have Mass at 6.30pm, followed by Stations of the Cross at 7pm. The Stations will be led by volunteers and groups from the parish. If you would like to volunteer to lead the Stations, please write your name beside your chosen Friday on the sheet at the back of the church. We would especially appreciate volunteers or a parish group to lead the first session this coming Friday, 16th February.

A series of reflection mornings, using materials from the acclaimed Sycamore Course will take place over three successive Saturdays in the hall. These will be on Saturdays 24th Feb, 2nd March and 9th March from 10.30am.

On Saturday 16th March, we will have a Confession morning at 10am, followed by Mass at 11am.
