Easter is Coming!
The budding trees and spring flowers may be a bit confused about the season thanks to our crazy Texas weather – but WE know what is coming! Lent begins with Ash Wednesday on February 26th. We have some new and exciting opportunities this spring! We continue to grow our East Dallas Ministry, partnering with our neighbors Bethany Lutheran and First United Lutheran as we share the love of God in our community. We will be partnering together to share our traditional Wednesday evening Lenten services – see the detailed schedule below. We will take turns hosting events and all the Holy Week services will be here at Central.
We will once again have some first-Saturday work days at the church as we do some spring cleaning and outdoor work in March, April & May and look forward to our first Saturdays in the summer for cook-outs and fun time together! And save the date for VBS July 13-17!
