Joyous Light of heavenly glory,

loving glow of God's own face,

you who sing creation's story,

shine on every land and race.

Now as evening falls around us,

we shall sing our songs to you,

God of daybreak God of shadows,

come and light our hearts anew.

Joyous Light of Heavenly Glory verse 1

I hope you are able to carve out sometime this Lent to spend time together as a family focused around Jesus. Maybe this could be done in family devotions, worship on the weekends or Wednesdays, or special prayer time together.

In HIS Love,

Sign us with ashes, merciful God,

 children of dust, as to dust we return.

 Sign us with ashes, merciful God,  
mark us and make us your own."

God has marked us at our baptisms. He makes us His and promises to never let go. As we journey through Lent let us focus on the price that was paid for us. To claim us God sacrificed His only Son. Praise be to God for His everlasting love for us.

Our classroom LENT worship centers.

I hope your family will use the Lent worship center. May this be a reminder to spend time as a family around God’s Word and in prayer. After Lent you may take the candles out (Save them for next year) and hang the cross up with the plain side out. Then it is a year long reminder of our SAVIOR!! Thank you to Mr. Bernhardt, for cutting out the cross pieces for us to put together!

Check last week's post, February 11 for ideas on how to use the Lent Cross.
