LEARN
‘Labours of Love” is a flexible downloadable resource for running a Lent course locally. It is designed to support small groups who want to reach out with kindness and partnership in their local community and is ideal to include people exploring faith. The bible-based discussions are fun and help participants to make the link between practical service in their community and living faith. Supported by St Edmundsbury Cathedral and the Lightwave Community, this course also draws on ancient Benedictine wisdom on how prayer and work are important in forming a Christian rhythm of life.
