Weekly resources to enrich worship and learning – wherever you are

Preparing for 15 - 21 March 2026

1 Samuel 16.1-13; Psalm 23; Ephesians 5.8-14; John 9.1-41RCL Lent 4 Year A

What do you see?

Jesus restores the sight of a blind man who sees Jesus for who he is. The sighted do not believe the man’s story, and fail to recognise who Jesus is. Jesus tells them that they are spiritually blind because they do not believe in him.

Sunday 15 March is Mothering Sunday in the UK. Mothers, and all parents and carers, do many things that go unseen and unnoticed, and today’s Gospel passage about Jesus healing a man born blind enables us to explore the themes of seeing and noticing, as we ask the question ‘What do you see?’.
