In Quietness And In Confidence Shall Be Your Strength
In the period we call Lent, we remember that Jesus went into the desert for a quiet time of fasting and prayer in preparation for beginning his work for God. These materials are offered for use on those days when you make a conscious effort to remove yourself from the humdrum of daily life and enter into a time of quiet reflection and spiritual regeneration. We offer a mix of picture posts / poetry and reflections / quiet day resources

These photographic reflections were originally created during lockdown, when opportunities to travel and gather together were severely limited. Drawing on photographs taken over many years, both while away and closer to home, they were offered as a way of sharing glimpses of the wider world and creating space for reflection.
Each set contains four photographs gathered around a theme. You might use them as an aid to prayer and reflection, or simply take some time to notice the places, details and moments they capture.
