We celebrate Our Lord’s forty days in the desert after HIs Baptism. It reminds us of His example and our own time in the desert through which every Christian is called to persevere. Are you adopting any form of fasting and prayer during Lent? We have three shelves of material devoted to prayer and the many forms of fasting. Fasting need not simply be “giving up” something. It can be a blessed “letting go” of something, and that act in faith reminds you daily of the approaching season of our Resurrection in Christ.
Lenten Madness? You may be into “March Madness” and the fun of Cinderellas and blue bloods in NCAA basketball. For Lent, have fun with the saints, while you learn. Check out lentmadness.org. Have fun!

Dear Friends,
As many of you know, we've had several deaths in the congregation.
Ed Boyer (March 21, 1937 - March 10, 2023) was preceded by his wife Carol, and was a faithful member of Galilee for many years. Ed was the founder of Angel Flight America, a flight service that provided transportation to patients, wherever they needed to go to get treatment. He also created a similar service for veterans. I valued Ed's prayers and encouragement, particularly in my first few years at Galilee, as he was a strong believer. The family has not yet announced funeral arrangements.
Ed Johnson (November 18, 1931 - March 14, 2023) also recently died. A regular attendee with his wife Jody, and also his son Hough, Ed now stands in our Lord's presence. Ed was a graduate of Duke University, a sailor, served in the Coast Guard, and was involved at Norfolk Academy. He left his mark on this community, and will be missed by family and friends. Please hold them in prayer as they grieve. You may find Ed's obituary here. A memorial service will be held at a future date.
Julie Wascewicz (September 19, 1957 - March 16, 2023) died last week with family and friends nearby. Those who knew Julie knew a gentle soul and a kind heart. Her faith in Jesus was clear and grounded, and we will miss her presence here but know also that she now stands among the great congregation, that no man can number. You may find Julie's obituary here. The service will be this Friday at Galilee, 1 p.m. Please hold her husband Greg and their family in prayer.
Yours in Christ,
Father Buchanan+
