The season of Lent begins with Ash Wednesday on February 26.  Midweek services are offered each Wednesday during Lent at 3:30 PM and 7:00 PM, with soup supper in the Fellowship Hall from 5:30 to 6:30 PM.  Imposition of ashes and Holy Communion will be offered at both services on Ash Wednesday for those desiring to receive these.

The sermon theme during Lent this year is “Eyes on Jesus”, with sermons delivered each week by local pastors participating in a pulpit exchange.  Lenten devotionals appropriate for children, families, and adults will be available in the Narthex.  Please use this special time in the Church Year to deepen your understanding of God’s grace in Christ.

The next Breakfast Bible Study is on Saturday, March 14.  Vicar Nader Hanna will continue his talk from June 8, 2019 on “The Unseen Realm”.  The space around us is much more populated than we like or think.  We don’t just inhabit this planet, we cohabit; we share the planet with unseen beings, good and bad, whose presence and activities directly affect our lives.  Even now we simultaneously live in two dimensions, or two realms; you may be sitting at your house or office as you read these words, but you, at the same time, are seated with Christ at the right hand of the Father in the heavenly places.  Breakfast starts at 8:30 AM in the Fellowship Hall followed by the presentation at 9:00 AM.  RSVP to the Church office at (714) 846-6330 or churchoffice@redeemer-lutheran.net.
