Dear Friends in Christ,
Today is Ash Wednesday! It’s the doorway into the season of Lent.

Lent is a time of preparing for Easter. It’s a time for looking inward and asking ourselves, “How might we better serve our life’s purpose – our call to be steward’s of God’s creation?” This turning is all about discovering how we might bring forth more vividly the Kingdom of Heaven on earth.

Today, on this Ash Wednesday, you’ll have a chance to reflect on this question – and more. You’re invited to stop by the church anytime between 4:30 and 6:30pm to listen to reflective music, pray, and/or receive the imposition of ashes! In your own time. And… you’re invited to come at 6:30pm for a short worship service that will feature reflective thoughts, music, and the imposition of ashes.

If you stop by, I’ll see you here. If you can’t come and would like to receive ashes, just have a conversation of faith, or share a prayer during Lent, be in touch, and I’ll show up – where you are!

Blessings of Meaningful Preparation for Easter’s New Life,
Pastor Ed
