Lent at Leeds Minster

11-02-26

Find out here about the discipleship groups, worship and music on offer this Lent for anyone who wishes to join in with us as we prepare to commemorate Christ’s death and celebrate his resurrection.  Everyone is welcome.

Lent begins with Ash Wednesday on 18 February and lasts the 40 days until Easter Day on 5 April. It is a period when we set ourselves through prayer and self-discipline to grow in faith and to become more Christ-like.

Lent Discipleship groups

During the five weeks of Lent (22 February, 1,8,15,22 March) we hold groups where anyone who is interested can meet with others to share and discuss ideas about Christian living, following a prescribed course.

This year we are offering three groups: one focussing on the Gospel of St Matthew, a second focussing on the habits and patterns of life associated with discipleship, and the third following a course based around the film Wicked ! Find out more about these groups…

We offer a simple lunch at 12.15pm on Sundays followed by a choice of groups until 2pm. There is a sign-up sheet where you can volunteer to bring soup and bread.
