Lent and Springtime:
As you read this newsletter you will have received a paper titled Lent and Springtime. Originally written for the church in Ireland you will forgive me if I state the obvious by stating that the message is appropriate for our church today as it was when first published. I hope that you find this article inspiring as we seek to deepen our relationship with our God, redeemer and source of Life. Wishing you all a happy and joyous Lent.
