The Way of Love- Wednesdays in Lent
For Lent this year, OSLC will be exploring “Practices for Jesus-Centered Life”. Beginning Ash Wednesday we will focus on seven essential practices beginning with Turn. Learn, Pray, Worship, Bless, Go and Rest all follow. As Bishop Michael Curry of the Episcopalian church explains,
In the first century Jesus of Nazareth inspired a movement. A community of people whose lives were centered on Jesus Christ and committed to living the way of God’s unconditional, unselfish, sacrificial and redemptive love. Before they were called “church” or “Christian”, this Jesus Movement was simple called “the way.”
Join Pastor Karn on Wednesday nights beginning February 17 at 7:00 pm as she presents these practices for us to consider and welcome into our lives. This will be offered via Zoom. Click here for the link.
Thank you to our Episcopalian brothers and sisters who created this resource.

Book of Faith Lenten Journey:
40 Days with the Lord's Prayer
The Book of Faith 40-Day Lenten Journey is a devotional resource connecting forty personal daily readings and weekly worship with the study of Scripture. The forty devotional readings included are structured around seven key petitions of The Lord's Prayer. While the Bible may be intimidating to many of us, the 40-Day journey will help engage everyone in devotional reading of Scripture. This Lent, Pastor Karn will walk with those who want to journey through Lent with this devotional. We will gather via Zoom on Tuesday evenings at 7:00 pm starting February 23. For the link to the meeting click here. To receive your journal ($12.00 each) please drop by the office.
