We will have an in-person service at St. John’s for Ash Wednesday. This is open to everyone in the community – you do not need to be a member of John’s to come to this service and receive ashes as a part of the service (you also do not have to receive ashes – this is your personal decision). Ash Wednesday is a holy day of prayer and fasting that marks the first day of Lent, which is the six weeks of preparation, and an opportunity to go deeper with God before Easter. This religious day is observed by Roman Catholics, Anglicans, Lutherans, Methodists, Moravians, Nazarenes, and more Christian denominations.
The tempter came and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command these stones to become loaves of bread.” But he answered, “It is written, ‘One does not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.’” — Matthew 4
You are invited to join us this Sunday, the first Sunday in the Lenten Season, February 26th. The in-person service at 10:30 AM at St. John’s in Williams has been canceled due to the impending snow storm. We have a video recording of the same service and it is posted on our Facebook page. The full-text of the video service is provided in the link below. You can use this to follow along with Pastor Fox on the video or you may wish to use it for personal study and reflection during the week. It contains complete scripture readings and prayers for the service.
