Lent is a season of 40 days, not counting Sundays, that begins on Ash Wednesday and ends on Holy Saturday. It is a time of preparation, repentance, and renewal for Easter, the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Prayer is a way of communicating with God, expressing gratitude, praise, confession, intercession, and petition. Candles are often used as symbols of light, hope, and faith in prayer. They can also represent the presence of Christ, the Holy Spirit, or the saints.
Join us for worship Wednesdays, March 6, 13, 20 at noon or at 7:30 PM. We will use “Holden Prayer Around the Cross” as a guide for a contemplative service of prayer, and yes, there will be candles!
