Worship Committee – Lent at Home 2021

Lent is a gift to us.  A gift of slowing down, of quietness, of taking time to ponder and ask questions.  Lent invites us into ourselves and our wonderings of life, love, and community.  As we journey through the season, getting closer to Jesus’ arrival at Jerusalem, we are encouraged to focus on the things that matter to us.  Yes, Lent is a gift.

The Worship Committee has been working to develop activities for nurturing faith and discipleship at home during the pandemic restrictions.  Just because we are in lockdown doesn’t mean we cannot participate in many activities at home or online to help us remember and learn in the season of Lent.

Please enjoy at home the activities we will be sending out to you during this season of Lent.
