Lent 2025

A World Worth Saving: Lenten Spiritual Practices for Action by George Hovaness Donigian

For anyone who dismisses Lent as a seemingly endless time of self-sacrifice and introspection, this 6-week study for Lent offers a breath of fresh air. It connects prayer and other inner spiritual practices with outward actions of mercy and compassion.

George Donigian guides you to grow in your prayer life by praying about daily news reports, discovering the needs around you, and responding with love and compassion. You will discover ways to:

*serve others
*feed the hungry
*seek justice and fight injustice
*offer healing
*extend friendship

This book will guide our worship throughout the Lenten season. We invite you to pick up a copy at the Welcome Desk ($15) and read/study it with us during Lent. 

For those who want to engage in studying the book with a group, three Sunday School classes will be studying the book: 

*Journey with Joy
*Hearts Transformed
*Open Circle 

Questions? Contact Pastor Jessica: petersenj@wellumc.org

Centering Prayer is a receptive method of Christian silent prayer which deepens our relationship with God, the Indwelling Presence...a prayer in which we can experience God's presence within us, closer than breathing, closer than thinking, closer than consciousness itself.
