Breathe for Lent – A Special Way to Honor the Season

Lent will soon be upon us. Ash Wednesday normally ushers in this holy season of self-denial and reflection, but what if there were another option? Enter Breathe!

Join is this Lent as we sit together in stillness, hear some inspired readings, sing some songs together to heal our souls and prepare our spirits for the true miracle of the good news still alive in the world. Let the teachings of Jesus lead us forward and inspire us to take action in a world desperate to hear, see, and taste what is good.

As we crafted this liturgy, we studied what was central to Jesus’ life and ministry: radical welcome, love for neighbor, care for the vulnerable, nourishment for the hungry, nonviolence in the face of injustice. At the heart of Jesus’ teachings, we find liberation, love, mercy, and grace-all of which are meant to be very good news for us all. All of which we desperately need to feel. This good news should bring us back to our roots.

This Lent, let us remember that the good news really is good news. It is joyful-like fine wine saved for celebration. It grows like a mustard seed and smells like perfume poured from an alabaster jar. It tastes like bread passed endlessly through a hungry crowd. It sounds like laughter and feels like mercy.

INHALE: When I’m afraid,
EXHALE: God responds with His presence.
