This years, the Lent Course continues in the Bredon Hill Group, led by Canon Ken Boyce. We are reflecting in scripture and art Jesus’ journey to the cross, sometimes expressed  in the liturgical service called ‘Stations of the Cross’. Once again our course is a combination of plenary sessions and local groups. The remaining plenary sessions will be on 14th March at Eckington Church, with the final session being on 28th March, which is the Wednesday of Holy Week, at Elmley Castle Church. Both these session begin at 7.30pm. There are local house groups in Bredon, Kemerton and Overbury, and it is not too late to join if you wish. Please have a word with Matthew.

The  Stations of the Cross which will be featuring in our Lent Course were painted by local artist Sara Hayward for a reflective exhibition at Worcester Cathedral held last  Lent. The full collection will be on display in St. Giles Bredon on Saturday  24th March 11am—4pm, and Sunday 25th March (Palm Sunday) 12pm—4pm. Inspired by low reliefs at Mucknell Abbey, Stoulton, artist Sara Hayward RCA has created a contemporary version of Christ’s final hours to be shown at the churches of Bredon and Elmley Castle, Worcestershire, during Lent 2018. Accompanying this exhibition of fifteen oil paintings are a set of boxes containing contemporary artefacts to aid prayer and reflection for visitors.
