Lent & Holy Week 2023

We are well into the season of Lent as the calendar turns to March and then on to April and Holy Week!

We are continuing our Lenten study, join us even if you haven’t read the book!

Upcoming dates are: March 13, March 20 and March 27 We will be exploring the book, Come With Me, which serves as a vehicle for contemplation, reflection, and spiritual direction to discern what God is cultivating in your life and in your neighborhood.

During these 5 weeks, we will study Prayer, Presence, Gifts, Service, and Witness. We will journey together during this Lent season, looking inwardly, and living what we learn about ourselves and God.

The study will be on Zoom to make it easier for everyone to participate. Contact the office for the zoom link if you are interested.
