On February 14th we cross the threshold into LENT.
We invite you to join us for our Ash Wednesday Service at 7:00pm.
On Ash Wednesday we begin our forty-day journey with Christ toward the cross and empty tomb. Marking our foreheads with ash, we acknowledge that we are destined to die and return to the Earth. At the same time, the ash traces the life-giving cross indelibly marked on our foreheads at baptism, reminding us we are God’s beloveds. While we journey together through this season, our relationship with God through the covenant of baptism is renewed. Returning to our baptismal call, we are set free to more intentionally bear the fruits of mercy and justice in the world.
Holy Communion will be celebrated at this service. Christ, our Host, meets us in this meal of grace and offers himself, fully embodied, in the bread and wine. He invites all to come and meet him in this Holy Meal.
This service will also be Live Streamed. To tune into the YouTube broadcast of this service at 7pm, click HERE.
