Allow this quiet, reflective worship service to lead you into the beginning of Lent, a season of the church year which precedes Easter. Observing Lent in a purposeful way by exploring the classic spiritual disciplines of prayer, study, worship, and perhaps, even fasting (!)will serve to connect you to the broader Christian community throughout the world. Come find out why followers of Christ have observed the season of Lent for centuries.... and learn what it means to us today, in this time and place.
