This booklet is designed to help you enter into the season of Lent. There is a popular perception that Lent is a time of misery, and whilst it may be a season for penitence and self-denial, it is also a time for spiritual growth and renewal. Each year the community at St Andrew’s Holborn produces a Lent booklet of daily reflections to help us focus our thoughts and devotions around a theme that will deepen our encounter with this Holy season.
This year we will be thinking about how different people in the account of Christ’s Passion in the Gospel of Matthew saw the events. We will consider their motives and actions and think about what they can say to us in our day and age.
