Ash Wed – Thoughts and Photos

Before we get too far away, I just wanted to send a couple reflections from our Ash Wed service last week.

What a great night!  I heard many comments from people saying how much they enjoyed the “homegrown” feel of such a service and that their lives were touched by Pat’s story, Katie’s song, the overall music or something in the concept of the “Dip.”  I also felt the energy in the room throughout our time together and watching families come forward to receive the ash and communion together is always incredibly powerful.  A definite memorable evening!

In order to help me continue to stay aware of this season of preparation for the death and resurrection of Christ (Lent) I’ve discovered a daily reading plan that continues to walk me through the life of Christ.  I’ve been trying to stay engaged with this plan on a regular basis.  Here’s the link of you’re looking to get a little more out of this lenten season.  http://www.biblegateway.com/resources/readingplans/lent.php

Thanks all for coming to our event.  Here’s some great photos that were taken that I just got a couple of days ago…

PS – I’ll be off this weekend – so show Alex some love as he steps in for the first time.
