The Centre’s Lent programme seeks to connect the often fragmented areas of prayer, doctrine and action – with a number of opportunities for corporate silence, and a Lent course with the Church Urban Fund on faith and social action.  The programme began with an afternoon on Silence: The Contemplative Way at St Peter’s Bethnal Green.

We have already posted the text of Fr Peter Farrington’s talk From Silence to True Stillness of Heart and Revd Fiona Green’s talk Lord, Teach us how to pray is now available as a podcast, with an accompanying handout.
