LOOKING TOWARDS EASTER
My Dear Friends,
As our Lenten season begins to wind down, we look forward to Easter Sunday. On Sunday, March 3, we saw the Alleluia banner being marched out of the sanctuary on the final hymn. This symbolic act is meant to emphasize the penitential nature of our journey through Lent. “Alleluia” is the song of the choirs, a song we do not sing during our days of repentance. We will add “alleluia” back on Easter Sunday morning!
Meanwhile, during these Sundays in Lent, we are taking a look at Paul’s letter to the Romans. This book has been called the most important letter ever written, and I invite you to participate with us as we think about God’s grace in saving us.
The aim of Lent is to prepare us to fully experience the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus. I urge you to take full advantage of these opportunities for spiritual growth!
Rev. Michael Halley
