Lent Group: Healing Wounds


  • St Barnabas Jericho Cardigan Street Oxford, England, OX2 6BS United Kingdom (map)

Our Lent group this year will explore themes from a new book by Erik Varden called Healing Wounds.

The question of suffering has always been a matter with which people have wrestled. In his book Healing Wounds, the Cistercian monk Erik Varden, now serving as the Bishop of Trondheim in his native Norway, attempts to offer new reflections on this most challenging of themes. He sets out to explore the biblical phrase “by his wounds you have been healed”, reflecting on how we can be drawn into the mystery of Christ’s suffering to find healing for our own wounds.

We will meet together with a simple soup and bread lunch on 4 Sundays in Lent after Mass.

Sundays 9, 16, 23, 30 March from 12.45-1.45pm

Get in touch if you would like to get hold of a copy of the book and join the group
