Lent is often described as a forty-day journey. We’ll set aside some time each Wednesday evening to gather as a church and invite Jesus to be with us on our walk. Each week begins with a soup Supper. Sign up below to provide some of the food. We’ll then share some after-supper activities and process to the sanctuary for a service of Worship. Whether your footware is boots, brouges or flip-flops (brrrrrr!) Everyone’s invited, No Exceptions! We’ll need a few people to help provide soup, bread, fruit and help with hosting. Sign up below or on the poster in the Narthex.
