Lent is the forty-day season of reflection and preparation for the death and resurrection of Jesus. The forty days commemorate the time Jesus spent in the desert praying, fasting and resisting temptations. Moravians hold communion on the First Sunday of Lent to mark the start of this reflective season by reaffirming their covenant to God, using the sacrament to ground themselves in God's grace, recognize their sins, and renew their commitment to serving others.

We invite everyone to join us in this traditional sensory reminder of Jesus’ sacrifices for each of us.
