Easter V Empire

The cost of faith and the price of fish

St Kilda Uniting Church Lenten Study Group Fishy Business

A Progressive Christian Lenten study focussing on the events of the Easter week. From Palm Sunday to Easter Sunday – a period of prophetic protest and challenge. How the pursuit of justice reaches its peak and becomes a demonstration of authentic love.  During the season of Lent come on a pilgrimage – ‘walk’ the roads of Galilee and the streets of Jerusalem; and find fresh food for a living faith. Get a taste of the context in which this story of courage and hope comes to life.
