2008 Lenten Theme: The Prayers of Jesus

Our Lenten theme this year is “The Prayers of Jesus”. Our focus will be on prayer and continue the conversation that we began with the Prayer Emphasis last fall.

For Lent we are following through on the emphasis on prayer and the retreat from last fall. We are centering on the prayers of Jesus both spoken and unspoken prayers. Prayer is central to our Christian journey with Christ. Jesus often prayed and sometimes we know the content of those prayers and at other times we can only imagine that content from the situations Jesus faced. Perhaps those are situational prayers. We feel you will find the sermons and lessons most meaningful as we journey Lent with Jesus’ own prayer life. Let us each enhance our own prayer and devotional life with keeping a faithful lenten observance and walk.
