Two ancient reflective services with a Revelation twist for Lent:

18/3
Mass for the Gift of Tears  - Celebrated by Bishop Peter, Bishop of Edmonton 
A modern expression of an ancient tradition – that of bringing to God our deepest sorrow, hurts and griefs knowing that here is the possibility of healing and release.

8/4 Tenebrae (Latin for ‘shadows’) is an ancient rite traditionally offered in Holy Week.
The Lamentations of Jeremiah the Prophet, interspersed with Psalms and the Gospel are read while candles are gradually extinguished throughout the liturgy.
 
Tenebrae is a regular part of the Holy Week services
at St Dominic’s Priory Thurs-Sat 9.30am.
