Ash Wednesday: The Cup of Fasting Ash Wednesday is a moment for us to reflect on Jesus’ suffering. We partner in his suffering so that we may better see the experience of those who suffer daily and work with them for lasting justice. This will be a bilingual service with theimposition of ashes.
Throughout Scripture and today, God sustains God’s people in the most basic of human ways – physically, with food and drink, and spiritually – with food and drink for our souls. This Lent, as we remember what it means to be human, we find refreshment from God’s fountain of grace. The different images of cups shown in Scripture will serve as a touchpoint for exploring aspects of our relationship with God. What does our brokenness say about us? What does discipleship look like? What does it mean to seek justice? This exploration culminates in the most exciting celebration of all – that Jesus is risen for us and we have new life in him!
We will have a dinner of soup, bread and fruit. We will worship wither each other around the table. This will be a bilingual event.
