Lent Worship Series![]() Ready for a Change?Do you ever feel like you are just going through the motions of life but don’t really know where you’re headed? Do you keep searching for meaning and purpose but come up short? Are you trying to lose weight, stop smoking, quit drinking? Has your doctor told you that you have to change your habits but you just can’t find the motivation or you feel sabotaged? Are you in a relationship that you know is not good for you? Or are there divisions among your friends and family that you want to mend? Does the news make you want to crawl back under the covers and cry? Do you have healthy practices that make you come alive in body, mind and spirit?
Are you ready for a Change?
“I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord, plans for your welfare and not for harm, to give you a future with hope. Then when you call upon me and come and pray to me, I will hear you. When you search for me, you will find me; if you seek me with all your heart, I will let you find me…” (Jeremiah 29:11-14).
God created us out of love in God’s very image to be persons of sacred worth and messengers of God’s love and peace. But we have not always followed the plans God made for us. And during the season of Lent, we pay closer attention to the ways that God invites us to change our ways, our hearts, our lives, and the world around us. If you’re ready for a change, come and join in worship that heals, empowers, restores, and transforms.
