Lent Is A Time For Growth and Education In Christian Faith

by Nick Duerr February 28, 2019
written by Nick Duerr February 28, 2019

Wednesday, March 6, is Ash Wednesday, which marks the beginning of Lent, a season that ends on Easter Sunday.

For many of us, Lent conjures up images in our minds of people giving up things, most often chocolate, soda or some other unhealthy food. Sometimes, however, people choose to give up something else, such as social media or dining out. For anyone who has lived in a heavily Roman Catholic community, Lent might bring to mind images of fish frys on Friday evenings.

But Lent is much more than odd eating habits. Lent is a season of the church year that has traditionally been set aside for growth and education in the Christian faith. A significant portion of that growth and education is focusing intently on the work Jesus did, culminating in His death and resurrection, which will be celebrated during Holy Week in April. There are many other topics into which we as the church can dive.

This year, at Hosanna Lutheran Church, we will discuss the parts of the worship service, as well as how those lead us to remember Jesus and the work He did to save us. We will be diving in deeply to discuss things, such as baptism, prayer and the Ecumenical creeds of the church.

Please join us for our Lenten worship, and in our studies of these topics. We will be meeting at Hosanna every Wednesday in March and up through Holy Week.

Worship times are 10:30 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. We will provide a lunch immediately following the early service, and a dinner beginning at 5:30 p.m., just before the evening service. We would love to have you come and join us.

Hosanna Lutheran Church is located at 9601 E. Brown Road.
