Lent
Lent is a season of remembering—Jesus’ time in the wilderness, His teaching and healing, and ultimately, His sacrifice and resurrection. It’s also a time to slow down, reflect, and reimagine worship in ways that deepen our faith.

Lenten Study Groups
Join a Small Group
Travel with Jesus on the road to Jerusalem in this six-week Lenten study exploring the stories he told at tables on the way to the cross.
In The Last Supper: Conversations That Led to the Cross, Will Willimon unpacks parables of searching shepherds, welcoming hosts, prodigal sons, and unexpected invitations—revealing how these meals point us toward Holy Week and the meaning of Christ’s sacrifice.
Through rich storytelling and biblical insight, you’ll discover how Jesus used the table to reveal God’s kingdom, why bread and wine became central to our faith, and how Maundy Thursday still speaks to us today.
We're offering two group sessions to fit your schedule:
Thursdays at 6:00 PM
Sundays at 9:30 AM
Everyone is welcome to join as we reflect and grow together during this meaningful season. If you are interested, fill out the form below.
