Thank you for joining us for “A Journey through Lent with the Sunday Gospels,” an online, video offering from Precious Blood Renewal Center.
As Moses lifted up the serpent in the desert, so must the Son of Man be lifted up.

The season of Lent invites us to step aside from our ordinary routines so that we can have a more personal, deeper encounter with God.
Ask yourself, “What person, things, or activities keep me from spending time in prayer or with my family?” It can be so simple to answer that question, but so difficult to actually change!
This week how can I not just sing, “O Lord you are the center of my life,” but actually do it? Actually put God at the center of each day? So that you can have more personal, deeper encounters with God.
I invite you to take a minute of silence right now and reflect:
This week’s question: What darkness in my life, or sinful behavior, do I cling to instead of letting go? Maybe racism; rude behavior; pornography?
A new video will be posted on our website every Sunday morning through Lent and on Easter Day. Register here, and we will send you an email every Sunday morning after the video has been posted.
You can also find them Sunday mornings on our Website and on YouTube.

Taizé is an ecumenical, meditative prayer experience using music, chants and scripture. We gather on the first Thursday of every month at 7 p.m. Each month we explore a different theme. The theme for September was "New Beginnings."

Just like houseplants have certain necessities — the right temperature, water, nutrients and sunshine — without which they can’t live and thrive. People too have a few necessities to live full and meaningful lives.
