Ash Wednesday

Wednesday, February 18, 2026

Come worship the first day of Lent, the seventh week before Easter.  Experience the imposing of ashes, a practice that is meaningful and evokes cleansing and renewal. 

Lent begins with a moment to pause, reflect, and reset. Ash Wednesday invites us to step out of the noise of daily life and into a season of honesty, growth, and renewal. Whether early in the morning, midday, or in the evening, we invite you to begin this meaningful journey with worship and the Imposition of Ashes.
 

Invitation to Lent: 6 – 7am
Have you ever wondered why the church has this gloomy purple season, where people eat fish on Fridays and wait 40 days to go back to Starbucks? Join us on Ash Wednesday, at 6 am as Pastor Josh explains why this is his favorite season of the church year. We will conclude with the Imposition of Ashes to help you begin your journey through this sacred season of Lent.

Service Times:  Noon + 7:00pm

Love Languages For Parents

Workshop

Friday, March 6, 2026

New Date! We spend a lot of time trying to do the right things for our kids—provide, protect, encourage, correct.  But sometimes what we give isn’t what they’re actually hearing. That’s where Love Languages comes in! f you’ve ever thought:

> Why doesn’t this connect with my child?  > I want to be more intentional as a parent, not just reactive. > I’m trying so hard—why does it still feel like we’re missing each other? This night is for you!

On FRIDAY evening, January 23, we’re hosting a relaxed, meaningful gathering designed to help parents better understand how their children receive love—and how small adjustments can make a big difference in connection, discipline, and everyday moments at home.

Times:  6:30 - 8:30pm
