Facing Challenges (February 17 - April 4, 2021)
We journey together through the season of Lent - a 40-day pilgrimage from Ash Wednesday to Easter (not including Sundays) focusing on the challenges that can block our desire to follow Jesus more nearly. For Christians. Lent is traditionally a time to refresh and review the spiritual disciplines that undergird discipleship. This year, we will be examining together in worship the barriers that prevent us from living out these disciplines. As we walk together on our pilgrimage, we acknowledge the reality of these barriers and our inevitable struggles to overcome them - even as we celebrate that we are not alone in facing them as a community of faith.
