Lenten Outreach

Each day of Lent, you are encouraged to think of someone less fortunate as you look in your closets and drawers. Remove one item from your closet that you no longer wear or need and put it into the appropriate bag. At the end of the forty days, donate these items to St. John’s so that we may share them with clients of ECS Head Start. Please bring your bags of clothing and place them in the narthex at the church.
All bags must be delivered by Palm Sunday, April 2nd

The Season of Lent

On Wednesday, February 22nd, we begin the Season of Lent. The first Christians observed
with great devotion the days of our Lord's passion (Good Friday) and resurrection (Easter),
and it became the custom of the Church to prepare for these holy days
by a season of penitence and fasting.

Lent is traditionally marked by acts of special devotion: prayer, fasting,
self-examination and repentance, spiritual reading, and alms giving.

We are providing optional acts of devotion to help you keep the season holy:

Prayer and Study

Wednesday Morning Prayer and Bible Study

Consider joining us on Wednesday morning - you may request the Zoom link from Rev. Roger.

Labyrinth Walk

The Labyrinth is a spiritual tool and can be walked as a pilgrimage for repentance:
a shedding of worries and concerns; reaching a place of meditation and prayer;
and finding union with God and the healing forces at work in the world.
Come to walk on your own; brochures of guidance will be provided.
Saturday, March 18th from 10am-2pm in Nale Hall

Labyrinth Guide

Stations of the Cross

For your private devotion, you are invited to walk the steps of Jesus on his journey to the cross;

Fasting

Self-Examination

Through self-examination, you may discern and consider fasting
from those things that are holding you back from being
an example by word and deed of God’s love.

Fasting Tips

Alms-Giving

40 Days – 40 Items

Please consider giving of your excess in order to clothe those who go without.
See the table in the narthex or the article in our E-Newsletter for details.
If you wish to have clothing collection bags sent to you, contact Maria in the church office.
