Lent
This year our Lenten theme is, “Share your light through words and actions.” We would like to pray and reflect on how Jesus’ journey to the cross mirrors our need to belong in community. We are inviting everyone in our community to pray and reflect on the words that surfaced during our discussion on belonging. How can we embrace the true meaning of these words to create a culture of belonging and to encourage and build one another up during this lenten season? How can we follow Jesus’ example? Every day our morning Lenten prayer will focus on one word that was discussed in our belonging conversations. Afternoon prayer will be a reflection question on this word and a minute of silent prayer.
This poster contains all of the dates and time below if you would like to save it!
