You’re Invited to Journey Through Lent & Easter with Us!

Lent and Easter at Symons Valley United Church offer space to pause, ask good questions, and spend time with God and community. This season, we’ll be exploring what it means to know God through scripture, justice, caring for others, prayer, and the natural world. Join us for Sunday worship, quiet midweek Lenten Vespers, shared meals, and meaningful moments throughout Holy Week and Easter—from sunrise to celebration. Whether you come often or this is your first time, you’re invited to be part of what unfolds here.
