Ash Wednesday

Each year, the First Christian Church, the First United Methodist Church, and we at the First Presbyterian Church gather together for the special worship services around Lent and Holy Week. The first of these is Ash Wednesday, which is February 14th (yes, Valentine's Day) this year. All three pastors, Angie Flemming from FUMC, Elaine Howsley from FCC, and our own Chas Gowing from FPC will participate in the service.

The First United Methodist Church, as hosts, would be pleased to have anyone from these three churches, but also friends from the larger community, to come and worship with us and receive an imposition of ashes on Ash Wednesday, February 14th, at 7:00pm. Invite friends!

In addition to worshiping and having and opportunity to receive an imposition of ashes at the evening service, the Methodist church will be open for those who wish to receive an imposition of ashes at the following times:

• from 11:30am to 1:00pm

• from 5:00pm to 6:30pm
