Entire Church Group at Shawnee Church of the Nazarene
Message from: Jason RowinskiChurch Family & Friends,
Tonight at 6:30pm we GATHER for worship & guided prayer as one inter-generational body of believers.
ASH WEDNESDAY marks the beginning of LENT, historically a time of spiritual renewal, preparation for baptism, and anticipation of Easter.
We've talked a lot about MARGIN this year, creating space for God & others.LENT is a time to learn & implement MARGIN. Come hear Dr. Jeren Rowell's devotional on what "THESE 40 Days" mean to us. If you're looking for spiritual revival in your life, I encourage you to use Jeren's devotional during LENT.

The service is two parts. The first 30 minutes are for worship, choir special, scripture, prayer & the imposition of the ASHES. As an alternative to receiving ashes, you may simply cross your arms over your chest & be prayed over. Here's pictures of your two options:
LAMENT (rock wall - where we offer or grief to God)
ADORATION (pictures of Jesus & from our church people)
INTERCESSION (light a candle & prayer for someone's salvation)
CONFESSION (write down a "sin" & burn it in the fire) KINGDOM ART - If you have yet to bring your "Kingdom Art" to church & would like to do so, please bring it to the welcome Center by 6:15pm. However, will will be receiving and displaying works of art throughout this entire series.
Looking forward to worshiping with you tonight!
Grace & Peace,
Pastor Jason
