Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light. Matthew 11:29-30
The following is a short selection of resources that you may find useful for your own prayers and reflections during this season of Lent.
This lenten season commences for the Western Churches on 2 March 2022 and 7 March for the Orthodox Christian Churches.
Forgiveness: A Study Guide** Ecumenical collaboration - Lenten Study for 2022 The aim of these Studies is to help individuals and communities with healing and new beginnings. It covers all the crucial issues:
Bishop Philip Huggins says, “The idea for this Guide evolved from meetings with wonderful people whose own stories are of forgiveness after poignant times of grief and loss, especially Leila and Danny Abdullah, founders of i4give (https://www.i4give.com). Bishop Philip invited three experts to join him in preparing these studies: Felicity McCallum, John Hendry and Fr. Hugh Kempster. The study's cover is beautifully illustrated by Revd. Canon Glenn Loughrey, a gift to this program. “Clearly, we all pray that our Australia and the global family might be more loving, more understanding and more forgiving. For this to be so, we need to be focused, with clearer intention. A better understanding of forgiveness can only help”, said Bishop Philip. “In the love of God for all living beings, our journey is to help us all make better choices so we heal and do no harm”, concluded Felicity, John, Fr. Hugh and Bishop Philip.
