Lent is the 40-day period (not counting Sundays) before Easter. Historically, it was a time of preparation for people who were going to be baptized on Easter. It continues to be a time when we prepare our hearts and minds for a better understanding of Easter. The spiritual journey begins with Ash Wednesday, when we consider our mortality, and ends with the Resurrection of Christ, in which we realize our immortality in Him.
The staff at St. Luke’s has written daily devotionals to inspire you throughout the season of Lent. You can pick up your devotional booklet at any St. Luke’s Campus during normal working hours, you can download a copy by clicking the link below, or you can request to have one mailed to you below.
God‘s grace is truly amazing. Wrapped into our concept of grace are so many wonderful parts of our life of faith. Grace is God’s presence in our lives. We are not alone as we walk the journey of life. Deuteronomy states, “Be strong and of good courage, do not fear or be in dread of them: for it is the Lord your God who goes with you; he will not fail you or forsake you.” (Deuteronomy 31:6)
