Wake Up
Walk On
These 40 days represent the voice of the saviour gently calling us back, out of numbness into the hope-filled future.
-
Lent is a Christian tradition that goes back nearly 1700 years.
During this 40 day season, Christians all around the world will turn their hearts towards Jesus in reflection of the miracle of Easter.
-
Some people choose to give up something enjoyable in their lives (TV, junk-food, shopping, sleeping in, etc.) and devote that time and energy into something that focuses their hearts on God. We call this a ‘fast’. You don’t need to fast to participate.
The purpose of Lent is to prepare our hearts for Easter as we focus on Jesus.
-
Our community will be going through the Wake Up Walk On devotional together . We invite you to join this journey with us!

‘I am honoured to be taking this journey with all of you for the next 40 days. As you set aside time each day, I know that God is going to meet you exactly where you are at and draw you closer to His heart.
As I wrote these devotions, I prayed this scripture as a blessing over each and every person who reads them. I pray that this blessing will surround you and follow you long after these 40 days are over.
The Lord bless you
and keep you;
the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you;
the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace.
(Numbers 6:24-26)’
—CORINNE MANNES
