SABRINA

Today is known as Ash Wednesday within the Christian faith and marks the

beginning of the season of Lent.  Lent is a time when many Christians prepare

for Easter by observing a period of fasting, repentance, moderation and spiritual

discipline.

I am Sabrina Williams, Director of Children and Family Ministries at Central,

and we would like to invite you to worship with us tonight, beginning at 5:45, in

our Sanctuary, as we participate in a Walk of Silence in preparation for the

season of Lent.

During this walk, you will visit seven stations located throughout the church.

The only one you will be talking to is God. Through the quietness, the hope is

that you may see, feel, hear, taste, and smell God's presence within you.

Each of our seven stations are to help you connect with God. At two of the

stations you will have the opportunity to receive communion and the imposition

of ashes.

This is a family event, opened to those Elementary and up.  A nursery is

provided for children birth - Kindergarten.  Please join us tonight as we begin

this season of Lent, walking toward Easter, remembering what God did for us in

the giving of His Son!
