What I value most about Ash Wednesday worship services is the chance for us all to openly acknowledge our frailty and sinfulness. In a world that often expects us to be perfect, Ash Wednesday gives us an opportunity to freely confess our imperfections. We can let down our pretenses and be truly honest with each other about who we are. We all bear the mark of sin, from the youngest babies to the oldest seniors. We all stand guilty before a holy God. We all are mortal and will someday experience bodily death. Thus we all need a Savior.
Christ Community will hold half-hour services at 6am and 6pm. There will be a light meal after the evening service.

For years I’ve been helped by this little imagined conversation between two characters named Prayerless & Prayerful.
Prayerless: I understand that you believe in the providence of God. Is that right?
Prayerful: Yes.
Prayerless: Does that mean you believe, like the Heidelberg Catechism says, that nothing comes about by chance but only by God’s design and plan?
Prayerful: Yes, I believe that’s what the Bible teaches.
Prayerless: Then why do you pray?
Prayerful: I don’t see the problem. Why shouldn’t we pray?
Prayerless: Well, if God ordains and controls everything, then what he plans from of old will come to pass, right?
Prayerful: Yes.
