LENTEN STUDIES

Welcome to our 2024 Lenten Studies.
You may study alone or join the study group each week at the Cathedral
on Wednesday evenings at 7pm from 21 February – 27 March with Rev Deborah Broome.  
Please let us know if you would like to join us – admin.cathedral@waiapu.com
Lent began with Ash Wednesday on 14 February.

GOD'S CALL:
 
WHO IS GOD CALLING US TO BE?

This Lenten study for the Diocese of Waiapu has been prepared by our Ministry Educator, Rev’d Deborah Broome.  

Each of these studies engages with some aspect of a call from God. Some of these are calls to the Church as a whole and all Christians; others are a more individual call to a particular role or life. 

As we move through the study we will meet a collection of people who have responded to God’s call in the past.

This study suits both small group study and for individuals to do on their own.  

THE SIX STUDIES FOR 2024

The studies are available online here as a single PDF document (2.7MB) with 6 sections in 44 pages, which you can download and print.   We also offer printed copies $5 A5 or $10 A4 large print.

Individual Study sections can be downloaded or printed (and are less demanding on your home printer).  Be aware there are colour sections, so you may prefer to set your printer for black and white. 

  1. Welcome – and a call to holiness
  2. A call to discipleship
  3. A call to service
  4. A call to a prophetic life
  5. A call to a vocation
  6. A call to the ordained life.
 

My hope is that through these reflections you may greet the Easter Dawn with a new sense of the love God has for you and for all the world.

Rev’d Deborah Broome, Ministry Educator, Anglican Diocese of Waiapu
