Fasting in Lent

Lent is a time of fasting, almsgiving and prayer. As we move through the season of Lent it is easy to think of the things we should stop doing or change in our lives to draw us closer to the Risen Christ of Easter. Pope Francis offers us a different challenge.

As a staff we have taken the words of Pope Francis on how we can 'fast' as we prepare for the season of Easter, as a focus for our prayer.

If you would like a copy of Pope Francis's prayer, they are available on the Foyer wall, please feel free to take one.
