Amen *Responsive Reading Psalm 51: 1-17 UMH# 785 Scripture Reading Joel 2: 1-2, 12-17 Pew Bible Page 1414-15 People of God: The first Christians observed with great devotion the days of our Lord’s passion and resurrection, and it became the custom of the Church to prepare for them by a season of penitence and fasting. This season of Lent provided a time in which converts to the faith were prepared for Holy Baptism. It was also a time when those who, because of notorious sins, had been separated from the body of the faithful were reconciled by penitence and forgiveness, and restored to the fellowship of the Church. Thereby, the whole congregation was put in mind of the message of pardon and absolution set forth in the Gospel of our Savior, and of the need which all Christians continually to renew their repentance and faith. I invite you, therefore, in the name of the Church, to the observance of a Holy lent, by self-examination and repentance; by prayer, fasting, and self-denial; and by reading and meditating on God’s Holy Word. *Hymn “Lord, Who Throughout These Forty Days” UMH# 269 Almighty God, you have created us out of the dust of the earth. Grant that these ashes may be to us a sign of our mortality and penitence, that we may remember that it is only by your gracious gift that we are given everlasting life, through Jesus Christ our Savior. Amen. Please come forward to receive your ashes Once you have received your ashes, you may stay as you wish to pray. Thank you for worshiping with us today!
