Come and See! – Lent 2023

A warm, open invitation to come and see what faith has to offer this Lent.

Everybody wants to know how to live their life in the best way possible, and we all need a vision for what it means to be human.

The Beatitudes, the incredible manifesto from Jesus recorded in the Sermon on the Mount, are our guide to living well and a great way of exploring faith… whatever stage of the journey we’re on.

Taking place this Lent, Come and See is a series of daily emails and a short video to watch each Sunday. The emails include a scripture reading, a reflection from the bishop and a daily moment to pause and be encouraged before the busyness of the day begins.

Now in its third year Come and See is hugely popular, thanks in part to its deceptively simple approach.

Whether you’re exploring faith for the first time or have been coming to church for many years, just five minutes a day using the Come and See materials promises to be life-giving, and life changing.

Come and See is free of charge. Find out more and REGISTER ONLINE at:

The emails start on Wednesday 22nd February – so please be sure to register before then to ensure you don’t miss out on any!

Would you also like the chance to ask questions, meet others and explore Come and See further? Well now you can! Here at Bodicote Church church, we are also running six optional weekly discussion groups alongside the Come and See online content. These offer the opportunity to meet with others in person or on Zoom and to explore the scripture, questions and issues in more depth each week, in a friendly environment, based on that week’s short video.
Don’t forget to register for the online content first here!
