Lent 2026
40 Days - A Lenten Journey Through Exodus
This Lent, our congregation will journey together through the book of Exodus, guided by the devotional 40 Days: A Lenten Journey Through Exodus by Rev. Benjamin Crismon. Exodus is the story of a people learning who God is, who they are, and what freedom truly means. The season of Lent invites us into that same work of honest reflection, repentance, trust, and renewed hope.
Congregation members are invited to read the daily devotions at home, while weekly worship deepens the shared journey.
