What is Ash Wednesday?


​ONGOING THROUGHOUT LENT

Inquirer's Class/Episcopal 101 - Sunday Mornings at 9:30 in the Merritt Room
Those interested in learning more about the Christian Faith from an Episcopal perspective are invited to Episcopal 101 Sundays at 9:30am in the Merritt Room on the third floor from February 11 until March 25.   This class is led by Sean McEwen and offers sufficient preparation for anyone wishing to join the church through baptism or confirmation.  More info here.

Wednesday Brown Bag Book Study:  A Season for the Spirit by Martin L. Smith. 
Each Wednesday at noon during Lent (immediately following the 11:30 healing service), Vivian Dodds will lead a study of A Season for the Spirit by Martin Smith, a book of forty  daily meditations.  Participants should bring a brown-bag lunch. The most inexpensive way to get a book is via Barnes and Noble online, where the price is under $9. Grace’s bookstore can order one for you, but the cost will be closer to $20 (alas for independent book sellers!).

Holy Week and Easter at Grace

An Invitation to Lenten Discovery

The early followers of Jesus fashioned the season of Lent as an intentional time of spiritual practice and devotion to prepare for the Resurrection of Jesus at Easter, as well as for the baptism of new believers.   Thus, Lent is a 40-day period of learning, study, self-examination, and renewal - a time to journey with Jesus in the wildernesses of our lives in order that we might cultivate a lively faith for the good of all creation. ​
