Throughout the season of Lent we follow the 3 special pillars of praying, fasting and giving.
Families at St. Vincent’s will receive the Lent prayer bag from school to come together to remember the Easter story, and spend time reflecting on Jesus’ sacrifice for us on Good Friday and his joyful resurrection on Easter Sunday.
The prayer bags help us to focus our minds on the days leading up to Easter and help us to remember the promises we made on Ash Wednesday.
Thank you to our families for sharing these beautiful images of their prayer time together, we hope you enjoy seeing them.
CAFOD (please click on CAFOD for the link) also have a wide range of resources and prayers for families which you might like to use at during Lent at home, including an interactive Lent Calendar with lots of activities!
