Here's what Anthony Rose has written for St. George's March Magazine...

Dear friends,

We're now in the season of Lent, that period of time leading up to Easter, during which we're meant to spend more time than usual thinking about our need for God and his forgiveness. It's a so-called 'penitential' season. But I wonder how many of us actually are able to make it anything special? During the Communion service on Ash Wednesday I used an extended preface, part of which I think is worth quoting:

 

For in these forty days
you lead us into the desert of repentance
that through a pilgrimage of prayer and discipline
we may grow in grace
and learn to be your people once again.
Through fasting, prayer and acts of service
you bring us back to your generous heart.
Through study of your holy word
you open our eyes to your presence in the world
and free our hands to welcome others
into the radiant splendour of your love.
