Thursday, February 26 – Midweek Lenten series begins
Evangelical Lutheran Church of Durham; Christ Lutheran, Springtown; and Trinity Lutheran, Pleasant Valley are jointly hosting Thursday Evening Supper and Special Worship during Lent. Each Thursday evening there will be light supper at 6 PM and at 7 PM Holden Evening Prayer around the cross. The schedule is: February 26 at Trinity, March 5 at Durham, March 12 at Christ, March 19 at Trinity, and March 26 at Durham.
Holden Evening Prayer was written in 1985-86 by Marty Haugen while he was the musician-in-residence at Holden Village, a Lutheran retreat center in Washington state. This lovely setting of vespers follows the traditional form while using contemporary and inclusive language.
