Special Message for

Ash Wednesday & Lent

It is the beginning of this year's Season of Lent. Presiding Bishop Sean Rowe shared the following special messages for your

Lenten journey.

[...In the old 1928 Book of Common Prayer Ash Wednesday service, we called on the book of Lamentations: “Turn thou us unto thee, O Lord, and we shall be turned.” I believe that as we Episcopalians turn, as we fast and pray for the conversion of our hearts, we can make a great witness to a world that has been brought to its knees by the power of hatred and division...]

Sunday March 1st 2026

Rev Jenn and I have appreciated the response several of you have made to our justice-oriented sermons in the past few months. 

A few weeks ago, I issued an invitation to those of you who would like to talk about these issues to let me know and some of you have done so. I'd like to invite you to gather during coffee hour on 

Sunday, March 1 at the table marked

 "Justice Circle." 

We can pray, talk, and plan some actions that advance the causes of God's justice and peace in our community. There are many possibilities!



All are welcome; I hope to see you there!
