Lenten Preaching and Lunches


May the God of hope fill you…
- Romans 15:13

The Advent has offered a Lenten Preaching series every weekday during Lent for over one hundred years, featuring preachers from around the country and around the world; and our concurrent Episcopal Church Women’s Lenten Lunches program serves thousands of meals to raise money for Outreach and Missions.

In 2012 we served 6,000 Lenten lunches and raised over $44,000!
