How to Lent

Lent begins Ash Wednesday, February 22nd! Come join us for one of our Ash Wednesday services (more information available in Upcoming Events) as we commit ourselves to this season of repentance, sacrifice, and joy. What? Joy in Lent? Yes!

The call of Lent is to commit ourselves specifically to a journey with Christ toward the cross. We walk with Jesus, learning from him, engaging in prayer, fasting, and almsgiving; we prepare our hearts once again for the drama of Holy Week, the sacrifice of the crucifixion, and the ultimate glory of Easter. NOT so we can become more religious!! Instead, so we grow closer to Jesus in our daily lives.

With this in mind, our Lenten Sermon Series this year is entitled ‘How to Lent’. Each Sunday we’ll explore a different aspect of traditional Lenten disciplines in the light of Scripture, and open our hearts more toward the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. Join us for this series, in person or online for the livestreams, and check out our other offerings: prayer groups, Lenten devotions. opportunities for giving, and special Sunday Lent ‘check-ins’ throughout the season.
