| Lent begins with Ash
Wednesday, February 18, 2015 (7:00 p.m., St. Francis service
with imposition of Ashes) -- a time when we remember we are
both dependent upon God and called to be members of the Body
of Christ as children of God. Lent ends during Holy Week with
Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and concluding the Saturday
before Easter.
Lent is a time of fasting and feasting:
fasting from hostility and feasting on tenderness; fasting
from bitterness and feasting on forgiveness; fasting from
judging others and feasting on the Christ within each person.
Lent is a time of preparing ourselves
for the renewal of our baptismal vows at the great vigil of
Easter (Sunday, April 5, 2015 at 10:30 a.m.).
During Lent, St. Francis offers some
of the following opportunities for fasting and feasting:
- Worship: services each Sunday at
8:30 a.m. and 10:30 a.m.
- Christian education each Sunday
for ALL ages (9:30 a.m.)
- Wednesday evening Lenten series
(February 25, March 4, March 11, March 18 and March 25 at
6:00 p.m., parish hall)
Come join us during this holy season
of Lent.
