Lent at St. Anselm

Lent at St. Anselm

Holy Habits – Lent 2022

The pandemic prompted many of us to explore what may be called Holy Habits. Little things that we do with our bodies, our minds and our spirits that draw us closer to God.

Some of these habits have drifted away from us as the pandemic took hold – little things like crossing ourselves with holy water when we enter church.

As those little things come back into our lives we’ll be exploring what Holy Habits mean in our lives and how we can use them to deepen our relationship with Christ as we head towards Easter.

There will be several ways to interact with the course which will be delivered by Fr. Matthew Cashmore and Fr. Sam McNally-Cross as part of the Centre for Applied Theology.
