Join us for worship including the imposition of ashes at noon and 6:30pm on Ash Wednesday as we begin our Lenten fast and pilgrimmage together. The Good News is all are invited - to worship, to experience the good news, to receive the grace of love of God in Christ Jesus.
What is Lent?
Lent is a season of 40 days leading up to Easter
Historically, Lent was a time when new Christians prepared themselves for baptism on Easter Sunday. Today, Lent more often is a time when Christians prepare themselves for Easter and are invited to deeper faith, stronger community, and a closer connection to God. This preparation happens through an emphasis on a few basic faith practices: prayer, generosity, self-denial (also called fasting), and service to others.
Lent is a season for changing your life, for turning things around, for getting back on the right path – this is what the word “repentance” means. Lent lasts for 40 days (not counting Sundays); reminding us of the flooding rains of Noah’s time (Genesis 7:17-19), Israel wandering in the wilderness (Numbers 32:13), and of Jesus’ temptation in the desert (Mark 1:12-13).
We would love for you to join us during these 40 days as we grow deeper in faith, stronger in community, and closer to God.

This year during Lent, we are gathering around the theme, "Tell Me Something Good." As we turn again to God, we root ourselves in the gospel - the good news of God in Christ Jesus. Join us on Wednesday evenings during Lent for soup suppers at 6:00pm and Eventide Prayers at 6:45pm., as we explore what it looks like to root ourselves in the good news of God in Christ Jesus that surprises us, invites us, and equips us to join in Christ’s mission of reconciliation and life-giving love for the world. Each Wednesday we’ll explore a spiritual practice that grounds us in the gospel.
