Join us each Wednesday during Lent — between February 22 and March 29 until Easter — for our 40-day journey with Jesus to the cross, featuring our Lent 2023 Worship Services. The season of Lent serves not only as a time to meditate on the suffering that Christ endured on our behalf but also as an opportunity to reflect upon our own Baptism and what it means to live as a child of God.
Midweek Worship Services at 12:00 and 7:00 pm are held over the course of six weeks each Wednesday. Enjoy a thoughtful, grace-filled worship service and come as you are — straight from work or school. Relax, pray, and share with friends and family. Come, feed your body and soul at Immanuel Lutheran Church during Lent 2023.
Lent 2023 Worship Series

The Sacrament of the Altar: The Incomparable Gift
The 2023 Lenten Journey begins on Ash Wednesday, February 22, with services at Noon and 7:00 pm. (Meals will be served prior to these services.) During the 40-day season of Lent, Wednesday services will be held on March 1, 8, 15, 22, and 29. In the 7:00 pm hour, Immanuel is participating in a “round-robin” sermon series with Good Shepherd-Carthage, Immanuel-Lockwood, and First Lutheran-Neosho, with Pastor Marler, Pastor Gilmore, Pastor Fitje, Vicar Peder Saethre, and Pastor Mehl trading pulpits. The title of the series is “The Sacrament of the Altar: The Incomparable Gift.”
Supper will be offered prior to the 7:00 pm services. Members may also choose to join Martin Luther School for the Noon Lenten services on these same five Wednesdays in March. Pastor Marler is conducting all these services.
