Lent 2023 -- "Telling the Truth"

Ash Wednesday

On Ash Wednesday, Pastor Jon will be at KT's from 11am-1pm with ashes available.
There will also be an Ash Wednesday liturgy at 6:30pm in the Sanctuary.
Ash Wednesday initiates the season of Lent by reminding us of our createdness, our mortality, and our need for God.
This service will notice how Jesus connects with us in some of the most difficult dimensions of our humanity. We will not just hear, but participate and experience.

Lent Worship Theme:
"Telling the Truth"

During Lent, we work on telling the truth. It seems simple, but there are many ways we avoid the encounter with what is most real and true about us, about the world, and about God. We'll come at this practice from several biblical angles:​
Feb. 26: Crying out to God / Lament
March 5: Prophesying
March 12: Confession of Sins
March 19: Walking in the Light
March 26: Pastor Becky Przybylski will preach from an angle TBD
April 2: Bearing Witness (Palm Sunday)
April 9: Proclaiming the Gospel (Easter)

Soup & Study

Wednesdays in Lent will look at one of the ways Jesus "tells the truth"--parables. These stories may be familiar, but we will be letting them read us in fresh ways with the help of Dr. Amy Jill-Levine, a Jewish scholar who brings a different perspective to the Christian Scriptures.
Each night will begin with a simple meal and move into a parables study, where we will (hopefully) let Jesus get a little "under our skin"

Stay tuned for details on Holy Week. Tentative schedule:
Maundy Thursday Meal (April 6, 6pm); Good Friday CrossWalk (April 7, 11am) and Ecumenical Service (April 7, TBD); Easter Sunday (April 9, 10am)
