And now the crisis in Ukraine has displaced numerous refugees in need of support by relief agencies and the Bishops' Appeal seeks urgent donations to go towards such humanitarian work. Individuals and parishes are invited to contribute to support these and other efforts. Taxpayers in the U.K. can give more help by “Gift Aiding” donations.

The Dean Writes:
Dear Parishioners and Friends all around the world,
During Lent, we enter into a season of preparation, self-reflection and repentance when we seek to literally ‘turn around’
andrealign our lives and focus towards God. It is a time to give up things as well as take on new life-giving practices,
helping us rid ourselves of distractions and our own selfish desires. By doing so, we seek to live and love as more faithful
disciples of Jesus. In its most traditional form, Lent serves as a time of preparation in the run-up to Easter and is observed
from Ash Wednesday to Easter Sunday. The bright colours which followed Christmas will be replaced by the more sombre colour of purple, and the Hymns will also reflect the mood of the season. On Easter day the brightness of the flowers, the church colours, the hymns of praise with the Gloria and alleluias reinstated will add to the joy and celebration of the day!
Lasting forty days, many Christians draw inspiration from the account of Jesus being tempted in the desert. Where for forty days Jesus was tempted by the devil. He ate nothing and at the end of the time ‘was hungry’. For Jesus, this time in the desert immediately prefixed what is seen as the start of His ministry, it was for Him, a time of preparation.
Lent should not be viewed as a legalistic or compulsory act, rather as a fantastic opportunity to set time apart for spiritual cleansing, renewal, and preparation in our own lives. During Lent, as well as the Sunday Services, for our own parishioners and friends there are two other midweek services at 7.30pm on Wednesday nights and at 11.00am on a Thursday mornings – maybe you could attend one of these? They only last thirty minutes! The Iona Room (Prayer Room) is open from 8.30am to late Monday to Friday – see article on pages 16 and 17 of our magazine (available to read on-line).
Use the season of Lent to re-connect with your Bible and with prayer. A good start may be to read over the events in the Gospel accounts which build up to Holy Week - Christ’s arrest, trial, crucifixion and glorious resurrection. Focus your attention on the suffering that Christ went through, and the purpose of that suffering. Explore Christ’s amazing grace and love. In view of this why not pause to consider your own faults and spend time in prayers of confession and repentance? Use the Reflections Booklet for Lent ‘The Way of Love’ that is available from the Cathedral Office or Cathedral Porch – see page 6.
If you are giving up things for Lent why not put the money you save to good use? Give it away or be a little more generous with what you put in
your FWO Envelope. If we are true to Christ’s teaching we should be more generous to His work. Why not support our Lenten appeal? – see page 8. Take a Missionary Box from the Cathedral Porch or a Gift Aid Envelope and return these during Holy Week. Why not set yourself the target of doing one random act of kindness each day?
Finally, why not make every effort to support all our special events this month? The Confirmation Service on 2nd March, The Ash Wednesday Service, St Patrick Day Service (Sunday 16th) and Mothering Day Service on 30th March. We have a very busy Parish with lots of activities, but nothing is successful without a good attendance so please make every effort to be there!
Let us all have a Holy and refreshing Lent and God bless you!
Yours very sincerely
