ASLC Devotion - Wednesday

Hebrews 12:1-2 Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight and the sin that clings so closely, and let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus the pioneer and perfecter of our faith, who for the sake of the joy that was set before him endured the cross, disregarding its shame, and has taken his seat at the right hand of the throne of God.

During the season of Advent, your email devotionals will be brought to you by YOU, by members of All Saints who agreed to write and share their thoughts with a given passage of Scripture. As we begin the season today on Ash Wednesday, we begin with the passage that inspired the entire outlook of the devotional project: the call from the letter to the Hebrews to run the race that is set before us. In order to run the race, we need some training. In the case of our Lenten journey, we need some cross training. So it will come to you, and we invite you to join this cross training journey. 

Printed copies of this devotional are available at church in regular and large-print versions.

We invite you to begin the season of Lent today (Ash Wednesday) with Holy Communion worship and imposition of ashes at either noon or 7 pm. See you there. Visit http://www.allsaintspalatine.org for a full calendar and more announcements.
