Knox Waterloo invites you to engage in a radically different kind of Lenten journey this year. Our theme for this year, Full to the Brim, is an invitation into a full life, to be authentically who you are, to counter scarcity and injustice at every turn, to pour out even more grace wherever it is needed. When we allow ourselves to be filled to the brim with God’s lavish love, that love spills over. It reaches beyond ourselves; like water, it rushes and flows, touching everything in its path.

Second Sunday in Lent
Theme: Under God’s Wing
Sunday, March 13th at 10 am
This Sunday in worship we explore how God is our refuge. There is nothing that can separate us from God, or could keep God from gathering us in and protecting us fiercely like a mother hen. We are invited to wonder about how God’s love moves through the world.

We are grateful for the participation of one of our music scholars Sophie Kim in worship and the gifts she shares.  Various children and youth will also be participating in the service.
Scripture: Psalm 27 and Luke 13:31-35
