Ash Wednesday Online Service at 7pm (After Soup Supper)


On Ash Wednesday we begin our forty-day journey toward Easter with a day of repentance. This year we will be viewing our service online. Marking our foreheads with dust, we acknowledge that we die and return to the earth. At the same time, the dust traces the life-giving cross indelibly marked on our foreheads at baptism. While we journey through Lent to return to God, we have already been reconciled to God through Christ. We humbly pray for God to make our hearts clean while we rejoice that “now is the day of salvation.” Returning to our baptismal call, we more intentionally bear the fruits of mercy and justice in the world.

We invite you to tune in to Faith's Facebook page or YouTube channel at 7pm for our Ash Wednesday Service (by clicking the buttons below).

The scriptures for the day, communal prayers, and words for the hymns will all be displayed on your screen during worship.

Padonia Request and Spring Cleaning Drive Update

This week, we see a blind man in the scriptures. But then we note how Jesus sees him. Our Gospel lesson today reminds us that God redeems pain and corrects our assumptions. The man that is healed is not an object for pity, but one given a task to aid his healing. Come to worship, grateful that Jesus is the light of the world, removing darkness and healing our vision in all ways.

Saturday Wedding Invitation and Bells are Back this Season

Our Gospel lesson today centers around an unexpected request. Jesus, our Living Water, asks a Samaritan woman for a drink. Her confusion is evident in her own questions but from them, she shares her hope for the messiah. Jesus reveals that he is that person. In her haste to tell her neighbors, she leaves her unneeded water jar behind. Come to worship, grateful that Jesus is the well we need, even when we are seeking our wellness in everywhere else.
