2022 Lenten Services

Beginning with our Ash Wednesday service on March 2 @ 6:30pm, we kick off the season with a midweek worship series called In View of God’s Mercy. The theme is taken from Romans 12:1 – “Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship” (NIV). Lent is a season when we take a look at our lives in view of God’s mercy toward us in the sacrifice of His Son for us on the cross. We, in turn, are called by God, especially during this time of repentance and reflection, to be living sacrifices for Him, displaying our devotion to Him in word and deed. Jesus helps us to see the richness of God’s mercy in His life, death and resurrection. The midweek services in this worship series for Lent, based on the work of Lutheran theologian David Peter, focus our eyes of faith on the meaning behind God’s mercy made manifest in Christ:

Ash Wed, 3/2: Mercy in Ashes

Week 1, 3/9: Mercy in Temptation
