Ash WednesdayFebruary 18 + 12:15 PM and 6:30 PM
"Blow the trumpet in Zion; consecrate a fast; call a solemn assembly" (Joel 2:15). Begin the cross-marked Lenten journey with Ash Wednesday worship.
Lent is the spring time of our souls! From an Old English word for lengthen, designating spring (when the light lengthens), Lent shines on us with the light of this Word: Christ bore the cross for you! His suffering has pierced the darkness of our sin and grave with His mercy and resurrection.
Three devotional practices accompany Lent:
intensified prayer,
fasting,
and almsgiving (giving to the poor).
Through these practices, we reconnect with our own emptiness and need, as well as the need of the world, which in turn helps us direct our devotion to God’s gracious provision in Christ.
How might these devotional practices renew your life?
