Lent is the forty days before Easter excluding Sundays starting on Ash Wednesday. This year Lent starts on March 1st. Sundays are excluded because Sundays are like “mini Easter Sundays.” Lent is a season of repentance, reflection, and fasting. Traditionally, Lent is a time Christians spend extra effort and time building their relationship with Jesus and preparing their hearts in thankfulness for the work Jesus did on the cross for us! Pleasant Hill offers a Lent Devotional written by fellow members of our body to encourage extra devotion time the forty days of Lent. This year lots of your brothers and sisters in Christ have shared their salvation testimonies to help get your devotion time started each day. Jesus died on the cross just to pay for our sins so we could be back in relationship with God and just that. Our salvation story is the fruit Jesus died for! During this season review your salvation story in your heart and make sure you purposefully said yes to Jesus! Celebrate and thank God for your new life in Christ. Celebrate with your fellow brothers and sisters their salvation stories and take your story to the lost in your life! We are called to share what Jesus did for us to a lost and dying world! Please pick up your Lent Devo at church, or you can view it on our website
ph.church. We are soilders in the most important army ever; let this Lent season be about building ourselves up in Christ!
God bless, Rene
