Tomorrow is Ash Wednesday which begins the Season of Lent, a period of 40 days, not counting Sundays, which is designed to draw us closer to Jesus Christ and prepare us for Holy Week and the final days of Jesus' life before his glorious resurrection.
Here are some Lenten opportunities at Faith Community to guide us through this season:
For the Sundays in Lent (March 1, 8, 15, 22, & 29) our church will be focusing on “The Five Practices of Fruitful Congregations.” Each family in our church will be invited to read a Lenten devotional book covering this theme. These daily readings will begin on Sunday, March 1. The books will be available to pick up at the Ash Wednesday service and Sunday, March 1 & 8 before and after services.
