Lent is a season of preparation - a journey towards God's encounter with us in Jesus' resurrection. Lent is concentrated time and space - 40 days towards rebirthing our discipleship. The call to churches is to use that time and space to offer practices that help focus our attention on following Jesus. This season, we will offer special opportunities to experience worship, fellowship, and prayer to augment our customary Sunday practices. May these six weeks be a time of deepening faith for our congregation.
