Lent is Here!
​
The Ash Wednesday service is still available to view on YouTube, but now we are officially in the season of Lent, a time of observance leading up to Easter.
​
Some people give something up for Lent, such as sweets; some people take something on, such as time for prayer; some people avoid all outward show of faith and focus on their inner spiritual lives.
​
As Presbyterians, we do not order these disciplines, but ask individuals to follow their conscience. The interplay of ideas, we believe, can help keep our intentions fresh as we live out our lives of faith.
​
Lent lasts five Sundays: February 21 through March 21. March 28 is Palm Sunday, and April 4 will be our celebration of Easter. We hope to see you!
Our Building Is Closed!
We are not open for normal or casual use. If you would like to request special approval to enter the building or host an event, recognizing that this will involve special procedures, please contact the office at office@firstpresithaca.org. We take COVID-19 seriously, and look forward to the day when once again our welcome may be unrestrained.
