First Friday: An Evening of Praise and Worship
Please join us this Friday, March 4 at 6:30 PM, at Holy Trinity for an evening of praise and worship.
We have stepped gingerly into Lent. Just as Jesus turned his face toward Jerusalem and his own death on the Cross, we turn our faces away from darkness and toward the light of relationship with our Creator.
God's call to repentance hangs in the air. As we lean heavily into the truths of His love for us and His refusal to leave us in the darkness, our hearts respond with worship and praise for the One who loved us and saved us, even while we are sinners.
Come! Let us lift our voices in song to express the gratitude of our hearts. Or come and sit in contemplation of the wonder that is our Savior Jesus, our Comforter the Spirit, our Father the God of all Creation.
LENTEN FASTS
As we have done the past two years, we are offering the opportunity to embrace as a community weekly fasts through the season of Lent.
Our first weekly fast will begin on Monday, March 7 and will run through Saturday, March 12. We will be fasting from electronic media: television, YouTube, podcasts, music, and the like. The invitation: leave the radio off; don't watch your favorite shows; let Netflix, Hulo and Disney+ remain dark.
The idea here is to make space. Without the radio, podcasts, audio books, television shows - without all the noise, we can embrace silence and separation from the distractions of the world to make space to connect with and listen for the voice of God.
In the silence, what do you hear? What is the Spirit whispering to your heart?
We will publish each weekly fast in the Thursday Spotlight until we reach Holy Week.
