Great words from Bishop Jake Owensby as #Lent begins: “When Jesus calls us to repent, he’s telling us that another kind of life is already available. A life animated by love.”
“No act of virtue can be great if it is not followed by advantage for others. So, no matter how much time you spend fasting, no matter how much you sleep on a hard floor and eat ashes and sigh continually, if you do no good to others, you do nothing great.” --John Chrysostom #Lent
Three #ashwednesday services today and a very good day for extra wipes. #lent

"Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage."- Bl. Absalom Jones who we remember today ⚓
