Plus, we will be engaging the holy scriptures and exploring how certain stories have been depicted through art, music, and poetry over the centuries.

Join us Sunday, March 22nd as we feature the music of Jim Byrom.

Lent is a time in the Church used to prepare ourselves for the great celebration of Easter. These forty days are an opportunity for us to renew ourselves in worship and discipleship. The three Episcopal churches of Galveston Island will host worship, dinner, and a speaker series. During Lent we will be focusing on “40 Day of Prayer.”

Each week the schedule will include:

Evening Prayer – 5:30 p.m. and Dinner and Program – 6:00 p.m.

Wednesday, March 18

The Rev. Michael Gienger - Pastor of Galveston Central Church

Grace Episcopal Church

(1115 36th Street)

Wednesday, March 25

The Rev. Dr. Nathan Jennings - Liturgy professor for the Seminary of Southwest

Trinity Episcopal Church

(2216 Ball Avenue)

Ongoing through Palm Sunday

This Lent our congregation is exploring gratitude and reciprocity with the United Thank Offering. We have a Lenten calendar and resources for families to use during Lent to focus a bit of time each day reflecting on those things for which we are grateful and how we can add to the goodness they bring into the world around us. Resources (including the blue boxes) are available in the Narthex for those that would like to use them at home on their own. The inspiration for UTO materials this year are from the book The Serviceberry: Abundance and Reciprocity in the Natural World by Robin Wall Kimmerer.
