Lenten Worship, Lent 2023

Welcome to the holy season of Lent.
The space between. The now and the not yet. We The space between. The now and the not yet. We can probably all think of a host of experiences from our own lives in which we occupy the space between no longer and not yet. The space between no longer pre-pandemic life and not yet what will settle into post-pandemic life. The space between before and after a medical diagnosis, before and after living with a loss, before and after navigating a relationship change, a job change, a move. The space between childhood and adulthood, young adulthood and midlife, midlife and the autumn years. The space between yesterday and tomorrow, your comfort zone and uncharted territory. The space between Ash Wednesday and Easter Sunday. This year for Lent, we’ll consider our calling to serve God and others in this in-between time.  Our Ash Wednesday and Sunday worship will follow a theme entitled:  “UNFINISHED – Discovering God’s Call in the Not Yet.”
