Peace to you,

This Lent at Christ Lutheran, our theme “Together We Build” invites us to reflect on how God is at work through the people, partnerships, and nonprofits that strengthen our community and our daily lives. Throughout these forty days, we will lift up organizations that embody compassion, justice, and hope, recognizing that the kingdom of God is built not only within church walls but wherever love is put into action. We encourage you to consider the nonprofits that have touched your life or stirred your heart and to see this season as an opportunity to renew our shared call to build one another up in faith and service.

Each week during Lent, you are invited to gather for our Wednesday midweek Lenten service of Holden Evening Prayer at 6:00 pm with a delicious soup supper immediately following in the fellowship hall. These contemplative services will include space for members of our congregation to share about a nonprofit organization that is meaningful to them, helping us learn from one another and deepen our commitment to the word God is doing around us.

Our first midweek service on February 25th will be a special service of healing and prayer, offering quiet meditation and the opportunity to come forward for the laying on of hands and anointing with oil.
Together, as we pray, listen, and share, we will discover how God is building hope among us and how together we are called to build with God.

In the hope of Christ,

Pastor Julia
