Lent is a time of renewal, a time of growth, a time to prune away the old and allow God’s words to enrich our hearts so that God’s will may be planted, watered and nurtured into new life.

You are invited to First Presbyterian Church for a series of Lenten Soul-Tending programs. Come to our Fellowship Hall each Thursday at noon during Lent, from March 7 to April 11.

There will be a soul-tending “exercise” with a soup lunch afterward.
