Lent

Everyone makes a personal and unique journey during these ‘40 days and 40 nights’. We start with our call to pray, fast and give alms. How might you join in this and how could St Patrick’s be part of that journey?

DISCOVER LENT
Pray

Why not commit to spending time in prayer each day? Join us for morning adoration, find an opportunity to go to confession or perhaps just to sit or pray.

Fast

In Lent, we are called to abstain from indulging and to instead make sacrifices, following Christ’s example when He fasted in the desert for forty days. Consider what you are called to give up this Lent.

Give

As Christians, we should ‘give alms’, meaning to pass our riches and food to those living in poverty. Lent is a particular time that we should intentionally consider how we might give more.

If you’re looking to establish (or reestablish) a rhythm of prayer, Lent is the perfect time to do it! Throughout this season, you can join with us in prayer in so many ways.

Fridays at 6.00pm

Stations of the Cross

Every Friday, we’ll be praying the Stations of the Cross together in our Church. Join us at 6pm every Friday in Lent.

Weekdays at 7.40am

Morning prayer

Every weekday morning, you can join us in the church for morning prayer. Morning prayer is a beautiful way to start your day with Jesus before getting your coffee and heading to work.

Starting on 10th March

Novena to St Joseph

In anticipation of St Joseph’s feast day on the 19th of March, we’ll be praying a novena (a special prayer said over 9 days) to him.

Sundays at 12:15pm

Lectio Divina

Meaning ‘divine reading’ in latin, Lectio Divina is deeply intimate way of praying with scripture as the Word of God. Join us on Sundays at 12:30 (after 11am Mass) in church!
