Journeying through the Lenten Season

15
Feb

Come and worship as we journey through these forty days with Jesus toward the cross.

This year’s Lenten theme is “What’s Your Call Story?”

Our namesake, Martin Luther, taught that everyone has a vocation. That is, everyone has been endowed with gifts and talents by God and called to important work in the home, church, and world. In this Lenten series, we’ll hear lay leaders in our community share their own call stories; how they have been called to their ministry, what its impact has been for others and for them, and how you can support it. In hearing these stories, we’ll be inspired to discern our own sense of vocation, in following the way of Jesus, and in writing the next chapters of our own call stories.

To support us on this journey, we are offering a Gifts and Passions Class. To register or learn more, contact Deacon Kyle at kyle@nativitychurch.org.
