Lent 2025

Lenten Worship Series at Bering Church

Lent is often seen as a time of repentance and self-denial, but it can also be a season of rekindling our love for God. This series invites us into a deeper, more intimate relationship with God, one rooted in grace, justice, and wonder.

This Lenten journey is an invitation to rediscover the depth, beauty, and radical nature of God’s love — a love that renews, challenges, and holds us.
