Lent 2025

This year the theme of our Lenten journey is: Soul food… inspired by the line in the prayer that Jesus taught us:

Give us today our daily bread. Hōmai ki a mātou āianei he taro mā mātou mō tēnei rā.

In the wilderness, Jesus reminded us that people don’t live by bread alone. Through our worship this Lent we will explore what sustains and nourishes us – both food and beyond – drawing from a resource prepared by the Methodist Church of Great Britain.

To nourish your personal journey, daily email is available through the journey offering inspiration, biblical, prayer and music resources, together with creative ideas for you to explore that this theme might mean in your life. You can sign up here.
