Lent: Observance through Bright Sadness, Preparation for Easter through Scripture and Art
Wednesdays, March 2, 9, 16, 23, 30 & April 6 | 6 p.m. | On Zoom & in the Fellowship Hall

In these six conversations, we will be surveying stories of God’s mysterious and miraculous work in the world as they are set out in the Paschal Vigil (Book of Common Prayer) and portrayed in the history of art. Weekly presentations will prepare participants to see Lent and Holy Week as part of the larger narrative of God’s interventions in history.
