Explore the Fruits of the Spirit this Lent at St. Stephen's Episcopal Church: A Journey of Well-Being and Community
St. Stephen's Episcopal Church invites you to embark on a transformative spiritual journey with our new Lenten Class, rooted in The Living Compass 2025 Lenten Devotional, this Lenten season. This class will allow you to reflect on and cultivate the Fruits of the Spirit while exploring how every dimension of your life—heart, soul, strength, and mind—interconnects in the pursuit of balance and well-being.
Children will have their own group to explore these same themes while, of course, having lots of fun!
What to Expect
Weekly Gatherings for Reflection and Community: In our busy lives, it’s easy to feel disconnected or compartmentalized, but we are not separate from one another. Each area of our lives—whether it's our relationships, our work, or our health—impacts every other dimension. Each week, we’ll meet in a supportive community to explore the teachings of The Living Compass 2025 Lenten Devotional. Through group discussion and contemplative prayer, you’ll be invited to reflect on how the Fruits of the Spirit—such as love, joy, peace, and kindness—manifest in your own life and your relationships with others.
Space for Contemplative Prayer: Lent is a season of deepening our connection with God, and we’ll provide ample time for prayer and reflection. This contemplative space will allow you to quiet your heart, listen for God’s voice, and ground your intentions for the week ahead in spiritual practice.
