Eyes on Easter: How Lent Points Us to Jesus

The purpose of Lent is to prepare us for Easter. But how often do we get caught up in Lent for Lent’s sake—as if it’s the Spiritual Olympics of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving?! Join us for an afternoon of prayer & reflection on how Lent leads us to Easter joy by keeping our eyes on Jesus as the center of our lives.
