Message From Father Karl

On this First Sunday in Lent, Matthew tells us that Jesus is led into the wilderness. It is not by accident, nor as punishment, but intentionally—because that is where God begins to clear the air. The wilderness is where the extra falls away, where the noise thins out, and where the heart can finally listen.


People of God, Lent is not about proving anything. It is not about performing holiness or passing a test. Lent is where God meets us in our hunger, as surely as God meets us in the ashes, and whispers again the sentence that steadies us: “You are mine.”


Looking forward to Sunday as our Deacon-in-Training will be preaching. Blessings, Father Karl

Lenten Soup Ministry

2026 marks the 12th Lenten season, during which we will provide quarts of homemade soup to our local food cupboards, and the sixth season partnering with St. Martin's Church. Through this outreach program, 1,463 quarts of soup have been donated over the years. New for this year, we welcome participants who are not soup cooks to donate fresh bread or rolls to accompany the soup.

Containers, instructions, and sign-up sheets will be available at church beginning this Sunday, February 22nd. You can also sign up online at the link provided below.


We will make our first delivery of soup and bread to the Great Valley Food Cupboard and the Highland Homes Food Pantry on Tuesday, March 3rd. If you have any questions, please contact Pam Faber at pmfsmc@comcast.net.
