From the Dio Log
From Your Pastor
 
We will begin this first Sunday of Lent with the Great Litany, the first prayer composed for what was to become the English prayer book. The litany takes the place of our usual opening words of praise and the prayers after the sermon. During Lent we omit Alleluias after prayers. The Lord's Prayer is in the form introduced by Bp. Lane.
 
Books for study and prayer are available in the parish hall. Almost always a conversation helps. Please let Fr. Warren know if you desire a time to discuss a passage, or a concern a reading evokes. Best times for meetings are Wednesday afternoons or early evenings.
  
Yours faithfully,
  Dan+
