ASH WEDNESDAY SERVICE
18081 West Road, 281-859-4141, cornerstoneumc.org
Ash Wednesday is the first day of the Season of Lent occurring forty
days (excluding Sundays) before Good Friday. It is traditionally a time
for worshippers to gather together with penitent hearts to have their
foreheads marked with a cross of ashes in an act of penance and contrition
before the Lord. On Wednesday evening, February 14 th at 7 PM. we will
be having an Ash Wednesday worship celebration. This service will include
the marking of ashes on each worshippers head followed by a quiet time of
reflection at the altar. In addition, as we do each Ash Wednesday service,
there will be something “extra special” to illustrate God’s forgiveness of
our sins. Special music will be provided by the Chancel Choir. This will be a
meaningful service and everyone is invited to attend.
St. Cuthbert Church
SHROVE TUESDAY PANCAKE SUPPER
You are invited to St. Cuthbert Episcopal Church’s Shrove Tuesday
Pancake Supper on February 13 th from 5:30-7 PM. We will eat pancakes
and play bingo! Shrove Tuesday originated during the Middle Ages. Food
items like meats, fats, eggs, milk and fish were regarded as restricted
during Lent. To keep such food from being wasted, many families would
have big feasts on Shrove Tuesday. The English tradition of eating
pancakes on Shrove Tuesday came about as a way to use as much milk,
fats and eggs as possible before Ash Wednesday began. In France, the
consumption of all fats and fatty foods on this day coined the name “Fat
Tuesday” or Mardi Gras.
ASH WEDNESDAY SERVICES
You are also invited to the Ash Wednesday services at St. Cuthbert
Episcopal church on February 14 th at 6:30 AM, 4:30 PM and 7 PM. All
services have Holy Communion and the imposition of ashes. The 4:30 PM
service is designed for children and their families. Ash Wednesday marks
the beginning of the season of Lent, which is dedicated to reflection,
prayer and fasting in preparation for Easter.
LENTEN PROGRAM: NAVIGATING EMOTIONAL WELLNESS
Everyone is invited to the Lenten program: Navigating Emotional
Wellness, which will meet on Wednesday evenings beginning February
21 st , from 6:30-7:30 at St. Cuthbert Church. We all experience the full
range of emotions - happiness, frustration, fear, anger, joy, sadness, awe,
peace - emotions that are given to us by God. As our city recovers from
the trauma of Harvey, many of us have felt these emotions in new ways.
Scripture is filled with emotion, both God’s emotions as well as those of
24
His people. Our emotions influence our lives as they inform, motivate
and guide us in what we do or don’t do, say or don’t say and react or not.
Being intentionally aware of our emotions and navigating our reaction to
them will benefit every aspect of our lives. Come be a part of this Lenten
study as we prepare ourselves to meet the risen Christ. Younger children
will explore the movie Inside Out. This movie centers around an 11-year
old girl and her emotions as her family makes a cross-country move. The
nursery will be open if requested. St. Cuthbert Church is located at 17020
West Road, at the corner of West and Queenston. Visit stcuthbert.org for
more information about all of our events.
