Download our Lenten Devotional
Welcome to our third Lenten Devotional! These 40 offerings have been thoughtfully and lovingly written by our youth, our confirmation class, members, staff and friends of our faith community.
This year’s theme is “Abide in My Love” from John 15. This is a deep text filled with powerful metaphors that are easy to understand and very hard to do. The key words of “abiding” “pruning” and “bearing fruit” are words that call us to read, meditate and then act on the gospel for the sake of the whole community, not just ourselves.
Wednesday, March 27 @ 7:00 pm. Ever thought about trying yoga? This is your chance! Our own Connie Kelly, a certified yoga instructor, will be leading us through an evening of stretching, bending and meditation exercises to help us bend, (like good grape vine branches), de-stress, relax, unplug and bring peace to our minds. Please come in comfortable clothes that allow you to move and be sure to have/wear socks! This is for everybody, regardless of age or physical condition.
“Almost everything will work again if you unplug it for a few minutes…including you!” Anne Lamont
