Connecting Our Community with Christ



We stand as a mighty tree in our community:
Strong and rooted,
Soaring and reaching,
Vibrant and fruitful,
Sheltering and comforting.

Week 2: Walking in the Wilderness


"God of grace, the wilderness is a frightening, disorienting place where we risk losing ourselves and our way. As we make this road through Lent, guide and direct us. Keep our eyes fixed on Christ, who was tempted as we are tempted yet without sin. Thank you for staying by our side. Amen."
