Friends,
During Lent, we often find ourselves asking the question, “What am I going to do?” We wonder what we should give up, how we are going to repent, and what we will do to prepare ourselves for Easter. This year, however, our Church has invited us to adopt the spiritual theme “Pilgrims of Hope.” As we open ourselves to the promptings of the Holy Spirit over these 40 days, instead of focusing on what we should do, we might ask ourselves instead, “What is God about to do in me?”
Our Savior is always working to transform our hearts and to make us into the sons and daughters that we were created to be, transforming us in a special way during Lent. It is a cause for hope to think of how this metanoia might unfold for each of us this year!
The ministry of TEC is engaged with bringing hope into the lives of young people who deeply need it. We need your help to achieve this mission. I humbly ask for your prayers and tithing for the TEC Conference during Lent as we cooperate with the beautiful work that the Lord is undertaking in every corner of our world. Checks may be made out to "TEC Conference" and mailed to 2241 Mendez Street, New Orleans, LA 70122, and online donations may be made here on our website.
This year, do not stop once you have asked yourself what you are going to do this Lent. Deeply ponder what you are hoping our Savior will do inside your heart. We thank everyone who has already donated and pray for a blessed Lenten season for all.
