 Eco -Tip:  Plant a seed. Planting a seed is synonymous with the new beginnings, the sacrificial element of Lent and the long-awaited arrival of Spring. And it's not just symbolic – this is a great time of year to begin sowing and growing if you've ever considered it.

Eco Lent Thought from A Rocha: Grow your own. Whether you have a garden or sunny windowsill, find out what you can sow and grow on a month-to-month basis here. Read how Vishadhi is using her home-grown food to bless her local community and food bank here.

In our prayers, we continue to hold the following before God: from Falmouth: - we pray for, Jane, Moira, Ray Baker, John Cotterell, Sandy White, Hazel’s son Matthew, the Brokenshire Family, Daphne Rundle, Barbara Toyne, Pauline & Peter Cocks, Dorothy Penman, Gwen Dunstan, Gill Wilkinson, and the residents and staff of care homes, especially Langholme and the folk at Abbeyfield.
