SUMMARY:Ash Wednesday
DESCRIPTION:Please join us on Wednesday\, February 18\, for a meaningful and intentionally different way to begin the season of Lent together. Traditionally\, Fat Tuesday is a final gathering before Lent begins\, a shared meal before a season of fasting\, reflection\, and repentance\, while Ash Wednesday marks the turning point of the Christian year and the beginning of our journey towards the cross and resurrection. This year\, we’re bringing Fat Tuesday’s spirit of togetherness into Ash Wednesday itself as we accept this season’s invitation to “stay awhile\, go easy\, and be filled with light.” Attend Ash Wednesday services offered at noon and 7:00pm and gather for a dinner of pancakes and bacon at 5:45pm. Let’s come eat together\, worship together\, and begin Lent together.

SUMMARY:Maundy Thursday Service
DESCRIPTION:As we journey “among the trees” this Lent\, Maundy Thursday invites us to linger at the roots of our faith\, where love is practiced quietly and transformation begins close to the ground. This day commemorates the night Jesus shared the Last Supper with his disciples. The word Maundy comes from the Latin mandatum\, meaning “command” or “mandate\,” drawn from Jesus’ words: “I give you a new commandment\, that you love one another.” On that same night\, Jesus knelt and washed the disciples’ feet\, showing us that love is lived through humility\, service\, and self-giving grace. This Maundy Thursday\, we follow his example as an opportunity to truly consider the way that Jesus lowered himself in a tangible way before he journeyed to the Cross. This service is gentle\, meaningful\, and participatory. Come as you are\, whether you choose to take part in foot-washing or simply wish to witness and reflect. Worship begins at 7:00pm; we’ll see you there.
