Newsletter and Order of Service for the Second Sunday in Lent

The rector writes: "I wonder if a holy Lent is one in which we bring ourselves to God just as we are, seeking deep rest and nourishment for our hearts and bodies. Maybe this season invites us to relax in the presence of the holy one who loves us, dream and playfully imagine the fullness of life, and move as feels good to us, following the lengthening warmth and light."
 
Join us at 11 a.m. for Sunday's service via Zoom and in our activities in the weeks ahead as, together, we discover restorative joy and rest, and the knowledge that we are loved.
