Ash Wednesday Service

  • Pearl Church 721 Northwest 9th Avenue Portland, OR, 97209 United States (map)

Lent is an ancient Christian tradition, a season during which we participate intentionally in the Christian mystery of atonement. Atonement is a theological word that points us to all of the mysterious ways that God restores relationship with ourselves, one another, and God’s own self.

Everyone is invited to join us for a special Ash Wednesday service, which inaugurates the Season of Lent by the imposition of ashes, in the form of a cross. During this quiet, meditative service, we create space to ponder the invitation of Divine Love to return home, to embrace our lives, and to seek restoration.

Youth are invited to participate in the corporate service. Childcare will be available for children 1-11 years of age.

Later Event: March 9
