Thinking Ahead to
Ash Wednesday and Lent
|
|
Believe it or not, we’re just a week out from Ash Wednesday and the beginning of Lent! On February 26, rather than our usual Wednesday evening classes, we will have an Ash Wednesday service. Come and join in this tradition that places us in readiness for what the Lord would do with us next.
And as part of your own Lenten discipline, consider being part of one of our Lenten Life Groups. These will run through the season, from March 1 to April 5, Palm Sunday. The Groups will be listed this Sunday, and in next week’s
e-news.

Thanks again to all who volunteered time, talent, goods, and service to the ladies of CARITAS. Most likely this was St. Giles' final year to serve, as the CARITAS organization has acquired a property projected to be in full operation by next year. Remember to pray for these who are in various stages of life transition -- for blessing and prosperity in every area. And most of all that they know a Shepherd who loves and watches over them every day.
