THE SEASON OF LENT WEDNESDAY WORSHIP These 40 days are a season to reflect and remember, to look forward and ahead. These are not easy times for many of us. We know the challenges our world faces. Yet the season of Lent reminds us that God is not yet through with us or our world. This year, as we journey through Lent together, we will explore the spiritual discipline of prayer and each week will center on different ways that Jesus used prayer.
