Official Invitation to Lent from the Elders...

In the gospel according to Matthew, after Jesus’ resurrection he said to his disciples
“Go, then, to all peoples everywhere and make them my disciples; baptize them in
the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and teach them to obey everything
I have commanded you. And I will be with you always, to the end of the age.”
Matthew 28:19-20 Good News Bible
