The Season of Lent

Lent means spring time. For we who live in the northern hemisphere what we experience as winter turns to spring is what we live as the followers of Jesus. We experience God's grace that thaws our hard hearts, bringing new life in Jesus Christ. During the season of Lent we reflect, repent and look to God for renewal.

The season of Lent began on Ash Wednesday, February 17. The 40 day season continues until Good Friday, April 2. During the season of Lent you are invited to worship each weekend on Saturday night or Sunday morning and to mid-week worship on Wednesday night. Mid-week worship each Wednesday night in Lent is either at 5:00 or 7:00 p.m. Worship on Wednesday night is guided by the Holden Evening prayer. A soup and bread meal is served from 5:45 p.m. until 6:30 p.m.

All the offerings on Wednesday evenings, in worship and for the soup and bread meal, are for the ELCA World Hunger Appeal.
