Preparation for Lent is actually a long-standing tradition in the history of the church.
But whether you eat pancakes or make doughnuts or not...doing some specific things to prepare can be incredibly useful in changing how you make your way through the Lenten season.
Especially if you want to have a different experience than you’ve had in the past.

Lent is a good time for considering the basic question of what it means to be a Christian. Pastor Max Vincent, in his book, Because of This I Rejoice, looks at this question through St. Paul’s Letter to the Philippians.
Bill Imes will lead a study of this book on Sundays during Lent beginning February 18 and ending March 24. The class will begin at 11:15 in the conference room.

This guy with the tie-dye vest is Hank and he is training to be a therapy dog. What that means is that he is working to be a presence that brings some joy, comfort, or relieves some anxiety in spaces of grief, sickness, or just life.

On Thursday, January 4 at Habitat for Humanity, we came together as a group of folks from all different strokes to put up stucco base on a house for volunteers with Americorp. It was not only a service we could do to help those serving in our community as they serve others; but also an opportunity for us to get to know one another better as we worked side by side. Grateful for the way Saguaro showed up today and can’t wait to see the way our partnership with Habitat continues to blossom.
