February 25, 2024 · 10:45 am · Second Sunday of Lent
The featured image comes from our Lenten theme, Wandering Heart · Figuring out Faith with Peter. The theme draws inspiration from the hymn “Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing” and focuses on stories of the disciple Peter. The meandering path depicts the non-linear nature of our faith journeys.On this second Sunday of Lent, February 25, we will hear the story of Peter walking on water in Matthew 14:22-33 and reflect on the line “Rescue me from danger” from the hymn. The waves icon reminds us of Peter stepping out in faith on the choppy waters and being rescued by Jesus.
