There will be 5 sessions, comprising prayer, Bible reading and discussion, on Wednesdays from 25th February to 25th March from 5.30-7pm in All Saints’ Church. Please contact Sheila Shrigley for further information.

Further Bible Studies on the Passion Narratives
Last year a group of us met to look at the Passion narratives in the Gospels. We began with the arrest of Jesus and followed through to his crucifixion. But these narratives begin much earlier, with the Jesus' entry into Jerusalem. This year we will being with the "Triumphal Entry" and look at Jesus' final week in the three Synoptic Gospels (Matthew, Mark and Luke). We will meet in the Church at Mondays at 5:30pm. All are welcome. Attendance at last year's sessions are not a prerequisite.
