Some food for thought.

What would Christianity be like if Mary Magdalene hadn't been hidden from view?

Lord have mercy.

Another instance of gun violence, today in Boulder, CO. We offer our prayers and lament another shooting in our country.
Kyrie eleison.

In case you were not able to participate in your congregation's Ash Wednesday service, here is the West Berks Mission District Service for you to enjoy. "Remember you are dust and to dust you shall return."

Our joint confirmation program, ChAOS, is studying the Lord's Prayer in the coming weeks. So I have some questions on prayer that I'd love for all those in the congregations to answer not just the youth:
How often do you pray?
What do you most often pray for?
How do you address God when you pray?
What time of the day do you normally pray?
Answer one or two or even all of them if you have the extra time. Remember there is no right answer. Be honest. No judgement here.
Thanks and peace.
