The Season of Lent

Worship and Discipleship Opportunities

Fasting—  is one of the traditional Lenten practices.  Sometimes this is directed toward food (giving up a certain food, or giving up a meal throughout the season).  Others choose to give to God a behavior or substance that has a hold in our lives.

Stewardship of Creation Brochure— Each day, an action that you can practice will help you learn about the valuable resources of the earth we steward and lead us to care for “this fragile Earth, our island home.”  This resource will be available in the Narthex (entrance to the church) or the Welcome Wagon.

Outreach/ Lent and Easter Offering—   Clean Water (Episcopal Relief and Development)

Please use the water bottle in the middle aisle of the church for cash donations, write a check payable to Prince of Peace with "ERD" in the memo line or use the Easter Offering envelopes.
