Lent with St Cuthbert 

St Cuthbert 2 

Learn from St Cuthbert, one of our greatest British saints, as we hear how he applied the teaching of Christ to his own life. One of our sermon series in Lent 2024, from Ash Wednesday to Maundy Thursday, with our Lent Complines in between.

The other one is Being Christian - click here for more information on that.
