LENTEN VESPERS SERVICE

LENTEN VESPERS SERVICE
Join us on Sundays during Lent (March 9-April 13) for our Lenten Vespers Services 6:00-6:30pm in the John Knox Chapel.

Vespers is an evening prayer service which includes time for reflection, Scripture, and song as we come to the end of the day. During the season of Lent, we will be participating in the practice of this evening service which dates back to the fourth century. Our Lenten Vespers services will follow the same pattern each week, incorporating many of the “traditional” Vespers elements, such as signing Psalms, Scripture reading, and prayers of intercession, as well as some “less traditional” elements, such as reflecting on artwork from our Lenten Art Exhibit.

9 O’CLOCK FILMS

Join us for a 3-week short film screening and conversation on Sunday mornings at 9am on March 23rd, and 30. Each screening features its own film, so plan on joining us for one, two, or all three weeks in the series. Participants should come ready to participate in a friendly discussion with others.

Online registration helps us know how many to expect. Questions about the screenings can be directed to the class facilitator Jimmy McPherson.
