ASH WEDNESDAY SERVICES

Ash Wednesday begins our season of Lent, a time when we journey with Jesus towards his death and resurrection.

This year, Ash Wednesday is on February 18th.

We will have a thirty-minute service offered at 5:30pm in the Sanctuary, which includes Scripture, music, a brief meditation, and the imposition of ashes. Childcare is available for children 0-4 years old beginning at 5:00 pm.This service will be live-streamed.

For those who cannot join in the evening, you are invited to stop by the church office (off Stafford Place) between 12:00pm and 1:00 pm to receive “ashes on the go”- a brief blessing and imposition of ashes. We look forward to seeing you as we begin the journey of Lent together.

Committing to walk with Jesus begins with first admitting that we are lifeless dust, that we cannot live as God desires us to without him, and then in that spirit, taking the needs of a dusty, fractured world to the cross awaiting the transformation that God brings through the Resurrection. New life emerges from death, rising from the ashes of the old life.
