Quiet my soul, O Lord | Lent 2024 |
​Saint Matthew's Community

“...the liturgical traditions of the Church, all its cycles and services, exist, first of all, in order to help us recover the vision and the taste of that new life which we so easily lose and betray, so that we may repent and return to it."
~ Alexander Schmemann, Great Lent: Journey to Pascha

Quinsigamond/South Worcester Ecumenical Lent

Once again this Lent Saint Matthew's participating with our ecumenical partners each Wednesday in shared prayer and refreshments.  Here is the schedule for the season.  Last year, those of our parish who came from week to week found the experience a positive and helpful one for Lent and life.
