Preparing to assemble and distribute Lenten kits to our church members, including these fabulous home-made wooden candle holders, seven tea lights, ashes for Ash Wednesday, and Walter Brueggemann's A Way Other Than Our Own, Devotions for Lent.

Ash Wednesday is tomorrow! We wanted to provide a service to begin lent. We realize disciples of Jesus vary in their practice of wearing ashes. This service will go live Tuesday night at 7:00 pm for those who wish a Tuesday evening or Wednesday early morning reflection. We will also have a watch party at 7:00 pm Wednesday night for those who wish a community expression. (Contact Pastor Sara for the link) May your reflections be meaningful in this time of wilderness reflection. https://youtu.be/TLr3h9VYxsM
