SUMMARY:Ash Wednesday Service
DESCRIPTION:Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of the season of Lent\, 40 days\, six weeks of intentional prayer\, introspection\, ritual\, and forms of fasting or abstaining from certain practices\, that ends with the sweet celebration of Easter Sunday. Ash Wednesday is when we look squarely at our morality and say “From dust we have come\, and to dust we will return”. We are marked and anointed with ashes (from last year’s palm branches)\, a physical reminder of where we have come\, and where we will return. While seemingly somber\, this is a chance for us to be honest with God and ourselves\, we are here on this earth for just a short time and ponder how we will live. \nJoin us for our Ash Wednesday service on February 14 in person or online. You are also invited to come by the church from 11:00 am-1:00 pm on Wednesday\, February 14 to receive the imposition of ashes from one of the pastors. Or\, you can come by those same times and pick up a to-go container of ashes\, so that you can do the imposition of ashes with your household at home.

SUMMARY:Cartas De Paz Service Project
DESCRIPTION:Cartas de Paz (Letters of Peace) program is an essential part of Casa’s mission to offer peace in the midst of chaos to people in detention.  Detention is an isolating experience; our letters will offer hope to people who often feel alone and forgotten. Greg Mortimer\, Volunteer Coordinator of Cartas de Paz\, will lead a 30-minute training session for people who want to write cartas to people in Detention\, followed by 30 minutes or so of writing letters as a group. Writing supplies and lunch snacks will be provided for participants. If people would like to continue writing to someone in Detention\, they will have the option to do so. Greg can get them started as well.\n\nIf you would like to attend this event\, please register HERE\, or on the physical sign-up sheet in the Narthex on the Welcome Center. \nAbout Casa de Paz: Casa de Paz welcomes guests who are released from the immigration detention center in Aurora\, CO.  They provide them with a safe temporary space to go to so they can connect with their loved ones and make it to their final destination.
