What's Happening this Season...

Lent is upon us

Once a year our Christian calendar puts us into a period of 40 days of "wilderness." These 40 days between Ash Wednesday and Easter, which are usually between February and April, are a time of spiritual deservedness. Like Jesus went into the desert for 40 days, right before the beginning of his ministry, this Lenten season is a time of reflection and introspection. We look at what our potential as humans can be, we discern our shortcomings.

Some of us at the church may want to consider giving up something for those 40 days. Some give up eating chocolate (that's impossible!), others eat no meat, yet others decide to give up taking the elevator whenever possible. All those practices aim at us looking at what is really important and essential. Whatever you do in giving up or letting go of, we'd love to hear about your journey! Let us know on Sundays during coffee hour, or on our Facebook page!
