The Lenten season is always my favorite part of the Christian calendar year. There can be nothing of any greater importance than the answers and purposes Christ’s resurrection and salvation provides in life. And it is my greatest joy to be sharing it with all of you at Charleston Presbyterian during our last season of Lent and Easter together.
On Sunday, March 3, we will be celebrating the Lord’s Supper during the worship service. On March 10, we will talk about the wedding in Cana of Galilee, and what Jesus’ first miracle means for us. On March 17, we will talk about unity in the church. On Palm Sunday, March 24, we will have a special message centering around the “Stations of the Cross” of Jesus. I pray that message will move all of us towards greater devotion to our Lord.
On Thursday, March 28, we will share in a fellowship dinner together at 6:00 PM and then follow with our meaningful, Maundy Thursday service in the Family Life Center. Then on Easter morning, we will hear how the resurrection of Jesus Christ has changed everything in our lives. Our Adult Choir has some beautiful music in store for us during Lent and Easter. I pray that I will see you there. You don’t want to miss these opportunities to worship the Lord our God and prepare for Resurrection Sunday.
Please continue to pray for our church family, our PNC, our nation and for people to come to faith in the Lord. I hope to see you in God’s house this Sunday!
In Christ’s Service,
Dr. Earl A. Bland
