Ash Wednesday
Wednesday, Feb. 14 at 12, 5:30 and 7 p.m.
Lent falls early on the calendar this year, with Ash Wednesday on Feb. 14. We’ll have worship services at 12 noon, 5:30 and 7 p.m., with Holy Communion and the Imposition of Ashes. The 7 p.m. service will be livestreamed.
If you will not be able to worship with us in person on Ash Wednesday, we are making available containers of ashes for you to use as you watch the service online. The ashes may be picked up in advance in the atrium, inside Door A.
Lenten Wednesdays
Feb. 21, 28, March 6, 13, and 20
Join us for Soup Suppers at 5:30 p.m. in Fellowship Hall during Lent. This year we will offer these meals by free-will offering, which you may give as you enter Fellowship Hall, or use the QR code at the tables when you are seated.
During Lent, we will be reading Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s book, Life Together. After the Wednesday Soup Supper, we’ll gather to worship at 7 p.m. using the Holden Evening Prayer service. Our pastors will be reflecting on the following themes discussed in Bonhoeffer’s book:
- Feb. 21—Community
- Feb. 28—The Day Together
- March 6—The Day Alone
- March 13—Service
- March 20—Confession and the Lord’s Supper
On those Wednesday evenings, we will have questions and topics at the soup supper tables that you can discuss with others before worship.
Life Together, by Dietrick Bonhoeffer
Bonhoeffer’s book, Life Together, is available for purchase at St. Philip the Deacon for $10 at the hospitality desk in the atrium. If you like to read electronically, we found this link to a downloadable PDF of the book.
