Lent, Holy Week, and Easter at Trinity
The Season of Lent begins with Ash Wednesday on March 5, 2025.
The forty days of Lent offers us the opportunity to journey ever closer to God through the life and sacrifice of Christ. Join us this Lenten season as we prepare for the events of Holy Week and the celebration of Easter. To help us with our journey, we will be using the Cultivating and Letting Go devotional guide which begins with Ash Wednesday and continues until Easter.
Copies of the devotional guide are available in the sanctuary on Sunday mornings.
Trinity will offer numerous opportunities for worship, discussion, and fellowship during Lent.
