Chaplaincy (online) Lent Study: starts Thurs 18/Tues 23rd February
Following the success of our online Advent course via Zoom, the Mission and Outreach group are proposing a similar format for a Lent study this year. The six session (zoom) study starts on Thursday 18th February at 14:30, and will be repeated on Tuesday 23rd February at 19:00, giving a choice of day and time, and then run on for the following five Thursdays or Tuesdays. Technical assistance is available, so please don't be put off, even with a weak internet signal! Material will be emailed to participants each week. We do hope that many of you will join us for this time of study with our sisters and brothers from across the Chaplaincy.
Humankind is facing its greatest challenge: global warming, leading to climate change. The 2020 Coronavirus pandemic continues to have a big impact on all our lives and has lessons to teach us about our life together on this planet, especially when compared to the greatest challenge of all to life on earth, climate change.
SESSION 3: The Age of Humans, The Anthropocene Era – Kathryn Carr
How we human beings with our god-like powers can still undo some of the terrible damage we have done and are doing to our planet.
SESSION 4: Coming out of Denial and Facing Crisis – Tina Marshall
Many of us find it hard to face up to the reality of climate change and make the necessary changes to our lifestyle. We need to understand why this is so, and how our faith can help us.
SESSION 5: Faith, Hope and Love – Anne Penfold
We urgently need to be clear about our Christian response to the present crisis: it challenges what we believe; it is also about how we can live in hope, and meet the demands of Christian love.
SESSION 6: What are we called to do, who are we called to be? – Tony, Barrie, Tina, Kathryn, Anne
