LENT is the season of spiritual preparation of the Christian year preceding Easter during which the life, teachings, and ministry of Christ are remembered. Beginning on Ash Wednesday, the Lenten Season lasts forty days plus six Sundays (although these Sundays are not recognized as Lenten days).

The forty days of Lent are most likely symbolic of the forty days Jesus is said to have spent in the wilderness – in self-examination and clarifying values and priorities – after his baptism and just before the beginning of his ministry.

The Worship Committee is hosting prayer and praise services on Wednesdays during Lent. They begin with Ash Wednesday, February 17, and continue each Wednesday night through March 24^th at 7:00 pm in the Mandella Room. The next week, Holy Week, will offer a Maundy Thursday Service and a Good (Dark) Friday Services, both at 7 pm , in the sanctuary. Also, on Dark Friday afternoon a Spiritual Labyrinth will be set up in the Sunday School rooms and available to walk through between 4 and 7 pm. For more information on the Lenten season or the worship opportunities available, please contact a member of the Worship committee or Pastor Jason. May God bless you in this season as you grow deeper, wider, and taller in your faith journey.
