SEVEN LAST WORDS: THE FINAL WORDS OF JESUS FROM THE CROSS
A Sermon Series & Group Study throughout Lent
​
This Lent, we will reflect on the final words Jesus spoke from the cross and what they reveal about faith, forgiveness, and hope. The series begins on Ash Wednesday and continues each Sunday throughout Lent at 8:30 and 11 a.m. Our Sunday groups will also engage in a companion study as we journey through the season together.
HOLY COMMUNION & CONTEMPLATIVE PRAYER
Wednesdays, Feb 25-April 1 | 6:30 p.m. | Chapel​
​
Join us for a quiet, reflective midweek service throughout Lent featuring Holy Communion, Scripture, and contemplative prayer. This weekly gathering offers space to slow down and reconnect with God in the midst of the season.
​
The Chapel will also be set with the Stations of the Cross, a series of guided reflections on the final hours of Jesus’ life. You are invited to move through the stations at your own pace, pausing to pray and reflect.​ All are welcome to come as you are and join us for this time of peace and renewal.
CREATION STORIES IN THE BIBLE
Wednesdays, Feb 25-April 1 | 7 to 8 p.m. | Room A117

You’re invited to a weekly study exploring the many creation stories found throughout the Old and New Testaments.
