Letter From Rev. Rebekah LeMon
This week, we begin our annual journey through the season of Lent, tuning toward God with humility and repentance. The days and events that lead to the cross challenge us to a deeper relationship with our Lord, both as individuals and a community. This year, our Lent theme is Becoming Beloved. We will think together about what it means to be God’s beloved — people who are blessed, broken, claimed by God, and called to discipleship. Our sermon series will track with these themes and we will study together Henri Nouwen’s Life of the Beloved: Spiritual Living in a Secular World, New York: Crossroad, 1992; reprint 2000.
May God be with us as we walk together.
Rev. Rebekah LeMon
Senior Pastor
