Lent This year, the pro­ moters of Christian


' Aid have suggested a new approach, to Make Lent Count. Leaflets have appeared in St Wilfrid’s Church, Ribchester, inviting everyone to “Count Our Blessings” dur­ ing Lent. It’s a time to reflect, to pray and to be thankful for all that we have received. Christian Aid, in line with its mission, wants all to go on a journey that they have de­ vised t6 transform the way we see the world, by counting our blessings. The leaflet is structured, throughout the five weeks of Lent, to pose simple ques­ tions that will give each of us pause for thought, and al­ low us to appreciate


. how blessed we are - whatever our cir­ cumstances - for so much that we take for granted. Each question starts with a simple statement. The question sug­ gests that we com­ pare our life-style with the statement, and then to give a small sum of money to reflect the bless­ ing that we enjoy. Christian Aid’s hope is that we will continue to work our way through this Lent course, week by week, so that by the time we reach Easter Sun­ day on April 8th, we have quantified how much we have to be thankful for and will donate that sum - or however much you choose, to Christian Aid’s world-wide aim to end poverty.

He explained how laughter really can make for many beneficial improve­ ments in health, re­ laxing tension in the muscles, especially in the neck, and by releasing “feel­ good” endorphins, relieve depression and stress.

The council is putting to­ gether a list of build­ ings and sites etc in Sabden to enter for the Best Kept Vil­ lage of Lancashire competition. The organisers have cut down the number of entries this year so councillors are considering, before the March meeting, which areas have the best chance of winning the individ­ ual categories.

Councillors said their concerns and questions are not being answered and said villag­ ers want the stone wall or some other permanent struc­ ture on the Pendle Street East side of the development to stay, but the deveL opers are suggest­ ing a wooden fence instead. It has also come to light that there are plans in the future to build more houses on the grassed side of Pen­ dle Street East to make it a two sided street.
