Gospel Share

 Gospel Share

We meet online between 7.30 and 8.30 on Thursday evening. 

If you would like to attend please email Ann-Marie on catechist@lancastercathedral.org.uk

We use Lectio Divina - sacred reading of scripture to help us prepare for the Sunday Gospel and readings. 

No experience is needed just a willingness to come and listen and if you want to share your ideas and questions.

Our format includes:

  • A welcome
  • We listen to our first reading
  • A musical version of the psalm
  • We listen to our 2nd Reading
  • Our Gospel - we listen to the Gospel three times - 
    • The first time we simply listen to the words
    • The second time we read the reading for ourselves and then listen whilst someone reads the reading
    • We then call out a word of phrase that strikes us
    • The third time we listen to the Gospel for a third time
    • After this we share our response - which might be a question, something that has struck us, something we've heard in a homily in the past, something we've read about.  We also share how we might respond to our Gospel reading in the coming week.
  • To help us we sometimes look at sacred art, or a short video guide 
  • We close with a piece of music linked to the Gospel and pray the Glory Be,
