Lent and Ash Wednesday - During the forty days of Lent, God's baptized people cleanse their hearts through the discipline of Lent: repentance, prayer, fasting and almsgiving. Lent is a time in which God's people prepare with joy for the Paschal Feast (Easter). It is a time in which God renews His people's zeal in faith and life. It is a time in which we pray that we may be given the fullness of grace that belongs to the children of God.
TONIGHT it will be my joy to preach at St. Mark Lutheran Church, 3030 E. Thunderbird Road in Phoenix. Services will be held at 5 and 6:30 pm. If you're in the area, come and join us!
