WHAT IS LENT?
Lent is historically a 40 day fasting season starting on Ash Wednesday (Feb 22 this year), leading up to Holy Week and Easter.
This season provides an opportunity to contemplate the significance of Jesus’ resurrection, to experience resurrection-life afresh in the present, and to prepare for the hope of resurrection’s future fulfillment.
Lent is purposeful stillness, reflection, and self-restraint to sharpen our ability to recognize what is happening on the inside and to reconsider what Jesus means to you... and to us together.
See what we are doing to observe this season together this year:
