Messiah continues its Lenten midweek schedule with prayer services on Wednesday, March 12th at 11:00 am (Matins) and 7:00 pm (Vespers). The 7:00 pm service is scheduled to be livestreamed at www.youtube.com/messiahgr, our website and our Facebook page. A BBQ Supper will be held before Vespers, in the Fellowship Hall at 6:00 pm.
Our 2025 Lenten meditations are based on The Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ, According to the Four Gospels. In addition to praying Psalm 91:1-13 on March 12th, we’ll focus on The Lord’s Supper. We’ll also sing selected stanzas of March’s Hymn of the Month each week:
Thou, ah! Thou, hast taken on Thee
Bonds and stripes, a cruel rod;
Pain and scorn were heaped upon Thee,
O Thou sinless Son of God!
Thus didst Thou my soul deliver
From the bonds of sin forever.
Thousand, thousand thanks shall be,
Dearest Jesus, unto Thee.
(Christ, the Life of All the Living, Lutheran Service Book 420:2)
