LENT 2024
February 14 – March 20
Altered by the Spirit Series
Worship at 7:00 p.m.
Lent is often a time of self-reflection, spiritual discipline, commitment, and community. Congregations gather to sing the minor harmonies of the way of Jesus on the road toward the cross. This Lent, however, we are going to look at a kaleidoscope of stories from the Book of Acts. We’ll see the ways the Spirit alters our perspective, transforms our communities, and consistently blazes a trail ahead of us. We’ll catch up with the work of the Holy Spirit, finding ourselves altered.
Because the Spirit is alive in, with, and under our ordinary lives, always calling us forward into transformation, nudging us into wholeness, and beckoning us forth into an alternative way.
The series begins with Ash Wednesday and continues for five weeks until Palm Sunday. On Ash Wednesday, we will have a special baked ziti dinner beginning at 6:00 p.m. until 6:45 p.m. Each of the following five Wednesdays, we will have a simple soup supper served in our Atrium beginning at 6:00 p.m., serving continuously until 6:45 p.m.
Worship will include Evening Vespers, and the sermons will have the following topics:
