The second of the parish's Lenten Station Masses took place at the St Jeanne Jugan Home by kind permission of the Community of the Little Sisters of the Poor. The clergy of the parish celebrated the Mass of the Day with a good number of parishioners, and some of the residents of the home. Afterwards the Sisters very kindly provided some refreshments.

WHAT DOES ‘LENT’ MEAN?
Our word ‘Lent’ is taken from the Anglo-Saxon and means ‘Spring’ or ‘Lengthening.’ Lent is that time of year when the days lengthen. The season begins on Ash Wednesday and culminates in the celebration of Easter. The 40-day Lenten Fast finds its origins in the scriptures. The Israelites had to tramp round the desert for 40 years but more importantly for us, Jesus fasted for 40 days in the wilderness before beginning his public life. Our Lenten observance imitates that of our Lord.
