March brings many changes with it! We entered the season of Lent -- with the Ash Wednesday service on March 2nd! We are using the theme “Good Enough” reminding ourselves to slow down this season of Lent and to pay attention and celebrate where we are in life, and not get caught up in the race to climb the ladder of success in a way that prevents us from being in the moment and celebrate the joys of ‘now.’ We are excited for the plans we have. Most of you should have received a Lenten kit delivered to you. If not, we will have some available on Sunday or you can let us know and we will deliver one. 

This Wednesday marked the first day of Lent in 2022. Broadway had our Ash Wednesday service Wednesday evening, and I experienced receiving the ashes for the first time ever. I grew up Lutheran, and at least when I was growing up, we didn't do the ash on the foreheads, and until now that was the last time I was in a Christian Church. 

We have officially entered Lent! But what does Lent actually mean? The word, that is?
