Mercy In The Wilderness

Lent Sermon Series

February 18th - April 4th

Journey the Path to Easter through the Wilderness of Lent

Jesus' life is marked by the wilderness. Before his ministry began Jesus and his family navigated the wilderness of being refugees fleeing violence all before his time of temptation. Jesus was sustained through all his wilderness experiences by God’s mercy. He enters the wilderness of our lives to reveal that mercy is more than an action that God performs, but it is the essence of God’s identity. All lives are marked by wilderness.  During this season of Lent we will be looking at the theme of Mercy in the Wilderness, opening our eyes to God’s mercy meeting us and awakening compassion for all who are experiencing wilderness in their lives. 

We begin our Lenten journey on Ash Wednesday (Feb 18.) and gather for worship at 7pm in the sanctuary.

Small Groups: This year we are challenging everyone at Aldersgate to be part of a Discipleship Group during the six weeks of Lent. These groups will be exploring weekly scriptures, reflect on the sermon and worship and explore the gift of God’s mercy transforming our lives. We have 7 groups available meeting at various times during the week. Click the button below to start your small group journey today!
