A little less than three weeks from now, on February 26,  we’ll enter the Season of Lent (our Ash Wednesday services are at 9:30 AM and 6:00 PM). 

On Shrove Tuesday (February 25), the day before Ash Wednesday, we’ll gather again for pancakes drizzled with Maine maple syrup and for good, relaxed conversation with one another. Supper will start at 6 and Paul Mazur will be asking a few good men to organize this – if you are willing, please speak with Paul. 
 
There will be another opportunity this year at the pancake supper.  We will set off the quiet of the library as a space where, if you choose, you can write a letter or note expressing your regrets, your confessions, your forgiveness of one who might have hurt you, or of your need to ask forgiveness of one you might have hurt.  No one needs to see what you’ve written.  You can place it in an envelope, seal it, and bring it outside where there will be a small fire ready to turn the chatter and wrangle to ashes. 
 
Of course, if someone needs to hear your words of forgiveness, or if you need to ask for someone’s forgiveness, Lent will be a good time for it….

Everyone is welcome!
