Welcome to the Season of Lent at Northminster Presbyterian Church!
In the Season of Lent, we move from ashes in the form of a cross on our foreheads through a week we call Holy to the miracle of a stone rolled away and news of the resurrection. This is a time of introspection, repentance, and renewal. It is a time of intense metaphor, powerful parables, and rich narrative.
- What parts of the story intersect with your own?
- How might the metaphors and symbols encourage us in our personal and corporate faith journey in these 40 days?
- What might we discover about ourselves and one another?
At Northminster Presbyterian Church, we begin our Lenten journey with Ash Wednesday, March 5. You are invited to join us as we move toward the cross of Good Friday and the empty tomb of Easter Sunday.
We look forward to seeing you soon.
