Lent 2021

Repent. Reflect. Reconcile. Renew.
Let us look to Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was waiting endured the cross.
In these 40 days we join Jesus in the desert of his temptation. We face the evil which tempts us; personal and systemic. We are reminded that we are but dust, and to dust we shall return. We behold a broken and poured out Christ in communion and upon the cross. We prepare our hearts for Easter. Join us in this sacred season.

Ash Wednesday Service

February 17, 6 PM | Limited In-Person and Live-Streamed.

Join us as we mark the beginning of Lent with an Ash Wednesday Service of Scripture, Song, Communion, and Reflection. Because of COVID precautions, this year we will not impose ashes, but rather will hand out small rocks with a hand-painted cross on them. You may keep that rock in your car, office, or in an important place to you, reminding you of Christ in your daily life. The service will also feature a new hand-made banner.

Lent Prayer Books

Mailed to your home in mid-February

One of our most popular COVID ministries has involved mailing out prayer books to help guide your prayer, devotion, and worship while physically distancing. This Lent we are sending out an updated book to help guide you and your family through the season. When the online version of this book is available, we will post it here.

Stations of the Cross

Posted in the South hallway throughout Lent

One of the most time-honored ways we remember the cross is through joining Christians around the world in taking a journey through the stations of the cross. For the last few years at our church, we have participated in this tradition by utilizing modern art from a church in Germany. Each station will have a striking image illustrating a place on Christ's journey, a short meditation, and a prayer. Take a few minutes this Lent to walk these stations prayerfully. To schedule a time, contact Jacob.

Sunday Worship

Limited In-Person and Live Streamed, Sundays at 11 AM.

Sunday worship in Lent is rich, reflective, and renewing. Join us each week as we extinguish another candle on our journey, and faithfully walk with Christ the path laid before us. It is only in fully exploring the depths of deep sorrow Christ endured that we will be able to fully celebrate Easter.

As Lent draws to a close we remember Holy Week with two special services leading up to Easter:

    Join us as we honor the Lord's Supper in a brief service on Maundy Thursday. The format of this service is still in progress due to COVID precautions.
  • Good Friday | April 2, 2021 | 6 PM
    In this somber service, we retell the story of the cross in sorrow. The format of this service is still in progress due to COVID precautions.
