Observances for Lent

Every Thursday evening from now through March 25, all are welcome to gather for a simple meal of soup and bread at 6:30 P.M., followed by worship at 7:15 P.M. Worship will conclude by 8:00 P.M. Make these midweek gatherings part of your Lenten practice this year!

Following three of the Thursday evening gatherings, Pastor Engquist will lead a discussion of Take This Bread: A Radical Conversion by Sara Miles, one of the books she read on sabbatical last summer. Dates are:

• March 4, Chapters 1-8, pp. 3-90
• March 11, Chapters 9-16, pp. 91-178
• March 25, Chapter 17-end, pp. 179-280

Many devotional materials for Lent are available online. Here are two of interest:

• 2010 Lenten Journey on Climate Justice
• Luther Seminary 2010 Lent devotional, "Our Father We Have Wandered"

Forum on Economic Issues This Sunday

The Greater Boston Interfaith Organization (GBIO), of which UniLu is a member, is working to address two key economic issues of concern to many in the Boston area: student loan practices that burden many students with high levels of debt; and credit card lending practices and usurious interest rates. All are invited to a discussion on Sunday, March 14 after the 11:00 service to share stories around these issues, learn more about GBIO's campaigns, and help strategize and provide input about next steps in GBIO's campaign. The session is open to all UniLu members and friends. Lunch will be provided.

If you are interested, please RSVP to Chris Porter.
