(2 MARCH-15 APRIL)
Lent is a season of 40 Days, beginning on Ash Wednesday and ending on Good Friday, during which Christians prepare themselves to commemorate and celebrate the pivotal events of Holy Weekend.
This Lent, we are embarking on a 40 Day Prayer Challenge, aimed at encouraging us to be devoted to prayer during the Lent season, both at a personal and corporate level.
The 40 Day Prayer Challenge consists of three tasks:
5 Minutes a day
Alone
Spend at least 5 minutes each day during Lent in prayer (using a prayer journal as an aid)
20 Minutes a week
with 1-2 others
Spend at least 20 minutes each week during Lent in prayer with 1 or 2 others (from your family, your CG, or your circle of friends)
Holy Week Prayer Meetings
As part of this challenge, we invite you to join us for our Holy Week prayer meetings, held nightly from Sunday to Thursday, 10-14 April. Through these meetings, we will follow Jesus in the final days leading to his crucifixion.
*Please note that the Maundy Thursday Prayer Meeting will be a bilingual event, held both onsite in CBC and online over Zoom. The meeting will start with Holy Communion, devotion, and personal reflection. And it will end with a time of small group prayer, in which groups may choose to pray in Clementi Woods (“the Garden of Gethsemane”), weather permitting, or in the sanctuary.
The Zoom details for the Holy Week Prayer meetings are as follows:
