Our 1st Lenten Soup and Bread Supper on Wednesday, March 4th

Our first Lenten soup and bread supper will be held Wednesday, March 4th, with fellowship at 6 p.m. and supper at 6:30 p.m. Our first speaker, the Rt. Rev. Robert W. Ihloff, will be with us. We have an abstract of his talk, "Benedictine Spirituality for Today":

"Lent is a time when Christians pay attention to their spirituality, their ways of experiencing and worshiping God. Individuals experience God in a number of different ways and they find different spiritual practices more or less to their individual liking. This is the result of two factors: God is so inclusive no one person can possibly fathom all the ways of experiencing the deity, and individual tastes, temperaments, and intellects lead to a rich variety of human relationships with God . . ."
