Prayer & Fasting
Communion & Fellowship
Each spring, Early Christians aligned themselves to the rhythm of Jesus’ death and resurrection — they would pray and fast (death), then they would gather for a communion feast (resurrection).
Years later, Christians began referring to this season as Lent or “lengthen”. As we move from the darkness of winter to the light of spring, our days begin to stretch and get longer. Early Christians saw this season as deeply symbolic as they prepared for Easter — moving from darkness to light. As the days of winter stretch out and transform to days of spring, we are invited to do the same.
When we walk the journey to Easter together in this season we too will stretch and transform, becoming people called out of darkness into His marvelous light.
Begins Monday, March 8
Ends Easter Sunday
We put together a guide that will help you experience the Easter season by taking the four weeks leading up to Easter to focus on prayer and fasting (Monday-Friday) and community gatherings (Saturday-Sundays). In the guide, we’ll help you choose a fast, learn from a weekly scripture reading, and feast together on the weekends.
Our hope is that this Easter season will create some of the most meaningful moments of your year!
