Lent 2021
Please consider joining with others in our BUMC for Lenten prayer & devotion, using the book Sacred Space for Lent from the Irish Jesuits. Here is a description from the publisher:
Lent, a holy time of introspection and penance in preparation for the passion, death, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus Christ, can be further enriched with Sacred Space for Lent 2021, a daily prayer experience from Sacred Space, the internationally known online prayer guide.
Sacred Space for Lent invites readers to develop a closer relationship with God during this season of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. What we know and trust about the Sacred Space online prayer experience is now available in a compact print format to heighten our Lent prayer practice in a way that is accessible, engaging, and meaningful to daily life.
Throughout the Lenten season, each day includes a Scripture reading and points of reflection, as well as a weekly topic enhanced by six steps of prayer and meditation. With its small size and meaningful message, Sacred Space for Lent is a simple way to build a richer relationship with God and embrace the Lenten season as a sacred space.
Not only will you be enriched in your daily spiritual practice, you can join together on Facebook on our church page (www.facebook.com/belvidereumcnj) each Wednesday evening at 8 pm for a brief time of meditation, coming directly from the book. And the books are only $4! Please reply to this email or call the church office (908-475-4065) to get a book and arrange pick-up. May your 2021 Lent be a time of drawing closer to God.
