Lenten Evening Worship Service

Lent has traditionally been a season of the church year in which we prepare for the Easter celebration by turning our hearts to God through prayer, fasting, and acts of service.

Join us every Wednesday of Lent through March 25, at 7 pm for a 30-minute worship service reflecting on James Cone's book The Cross and the Lynching Tree, exploring the connection between these tools of violence and how the oppressed have resisted and created liberation despite the threats of empire.

Further small group study of the book will be available before the Wednesday evening services at 5:45 pm. If you are interested in participating, please sign up on the clipboard in the entry hall or email Intern Pax.

Tidings of Comfort Worship

Tidings of Comfort Worship

Those who find the holiday season difficult are welcome to join Intern Pax for a Tidings of Comfort service. Whether you are grieving the loss of a loved one, mourning the suffering in the world, or simply needing space for sadness in a season that often rushes toward superficial joy, you are welcome. There will be no expectation to share personal grief aloud. Participants may choose to write down who or what they are grieving and place it in a basket; after the service, each person may draw a note to carry with them in prayer—a reminder that we do not carry these burdens alone. An informal gathering with hot apple cider (and possibly cookies) will follow.
