Lent begins on Valentine's Day, Feb 14! During Lent, we will talk as a congregation about spiritual disciplines. What are "spiritual disciplines"? That term gets tossed around quite a bit during the season of Lent. A spiritual discipline is any habit or activity done with intention that helps us be more "in touch" with our spirituality and with God. During Lent, many of us choose one discipline, fasting, as a focus in order to integrate it into our lives and become more spiritually connected. It doesn't really matter which of the disciplines you choose for your Lenten focus, or you could choose to incorporate multiple disciplines. What matters is that you practice it on a consistent basis for the 40 days of Lent.
Attached is a Lent Walk, for us to virtually walk together this Lenten season. Each day, you will be asked to use one or more spiritual discipline to grow in your faith walk. We will also focus on a key concept- helping others in our world, as we prepare and focus on some of our upcoming youth events (the Fast for Food, the Learn and Serve trip to SIFAT). I encourage you to walk through Lent with me!

Christ Jesus said “If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink. He who believes in me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.” (John 7:37-38)

Past trips have been to Mountain T.O.P., SIFAT, Upper Sand Mountain Parish, Copperhill TN, Tuskegee AL and Slidell, LA to help with Hurricane Katrina recovery. These trips give students the assurance that they can make a difference in the lives of others by sharing a Christian attitude and a willing heart.
