Our Lenten worship experiences are intended to center and ground as we move forward in faith and strive to live out our core congregational values: Grace, Worship, Generosity, Compassion, and Inclusivity.
SUNDAY EVENING LENTEN WORSHIP
Sundays at 6:00 p.m. (February 22-March 22)
Worship will take place in the Sanctuary. Some of the youth will serve as greeters, ushers, and lectors.
MIDWEEK LENTEN LUNCHES & WORSHIP
Wednesdays at Noon (February 25-March 25)
A light lunch will be served in the Parish Life Center followed by a short worship service.
SIGN UP TO HELP WITH MIDWEEK LUNCHES!
If you would like to contribute a pot of soup (8-10 servings) or help setup/serve/cleanup for one or more of the lunches, please sign up on Realm by clicking below or contact Bridgit Melton (bmelton@stjohns-springfield.org).
LENTEN DEVOTIONS
Watch for a booklet of daily devotions written by staff and disciples from St. John’s! Each devotion will correspond to a reading from our Sunday Evening and Midweek Lenten services. It is our prayer that these devotions will serve to enhance and complement your worship experience. The booklet will be sent along with the weekly email update from St. John’s and be linked below. A limited number of print copies will be available at the church.
During Lent, as part of a confirmation project, one of the small groups is collecting hygiene items to assemble Care Kits for our St. John's Little Free Food Pantry. Please consider purchasing some of the following items and dropping them off in the Welcome Center using the bins provided. Please drop off all items by Sunday, March 15.
CARE KIT LIST:
Toothpaste
Toothbrushes (individually packaged)
Deodorant
Hairbrushes/Wide-Toothed Combs
Band-Aids
Body Soap/Cleanser
**Items should be small enough to fit into a one-gallon bag.
