Lent

This is the time to welcome people into the Our Church at Home Creation Session. During this time you will be building relationships with the group. You might decide at this point to sing an introductory hymn, do a body prayer, ask everyone how they are or celebrate somebody’s birthday. Creating a welcoming and friendly atmosphere ready to enter into the story is a key element.
