Lent 2024

The church season of Lent begins February 14, 2024.  During the season of Lent there will be extra opportunities to prepare our hearts as our hearts journey to the cross.  Join us for these Wednesday services starting February 14th.  Each week the schedule we be as follows:

 

                At 5pm there will be Catechism class in the basement

                At 6pm there will be a shared meal, please join us!

At 7pm we will join our hearts in meditation of Christ’s Passion

 

If you can’t make it Wednesday night, join Pastor Rothfuss as he leads the service on Thursday at Grace in Sugar Bush.  The Thursday services start at 6:30pm.

 

Ash Wednesday marks 40 days before Easter (the early church excluded counting the Sundays in Lent since every Sunday is a mini-Easter celebration).  We will mark the start of Lent this year with a very special worship opportunity.  The service will balance the Law and the Gospel as we are reminded of our sin, that which separates us from God, and Christ, our Savior.  This will be a special service that will include the Sacrament of Holy Communion. 

The Wednesdays following Ash Wednesday our services will be focused on baptism.

Week 1: A Sacrament, not a Sign

Week 2: A Great Power and a Greater Gift

Week 3: Baptism Is Needed by All

Week 4: The Right Tool for This Job

Week 5: Reliving Your Baptism Every Day
