The beginning of the Lent season is on Ash Wednesday 10 February and there are two Lent appeals that you might like to know about.

The first one is the Bishop of Chelmsford’s Lent Appeal which is the one St Mary’s will support.

The second appeal was brought to our attention by the Colchester Deanery and is for the benefit of the Colchester Food bank. Clicking here will take you to the information sheet.
