Season of Lent: The word “Lent” comes from the old English word lencten. This season begins with Ash Wednesday, and runs for 40 days, until Easter. The Paraments for Lent are purple, except for the Fourth Sunday, Laetare Sunday, which is rose. The Gloria In Excelsis and the Alleluias before the Gospel are omitted. The Verse, Christ Hath Humbled Himself, is sung each Sunday before the Gospel.
 
SPRING CLEANING: at the church will be Saturday, April 5 at 9:00am. Sign-up sheets are on the table in the Narthex.
 
COMMON THREADS: Ladies’ Guild will meet on April 5th at 9:30am. The theme for the day is “Common Threads” which will include a short activity where we learn about things we have in common with each other. All ladies are encouraged to bring their current knitting, sewing, or other crafting project and enjoy fellowship with one another. An alternative activity is organizing the storage room.

PHOTOS ON CHURCH WEBSITE: We are updating the Ladies’ Guild page and adding some group photos from our meetings and events. If you do not want your picture on the website for this or any other event, please let Allison know. No names will be listed with the pictures.
