St. John, Hamlin offers Lenten Services
based on "The Passion of the Christ"

As part of their awareness program, St. John Lutheran Church in Hamlin will be holding Lenten Services based on the soon-to-be-released Mel Gibson portrayal of "The Passion of the Christ." The first discussion on Ash Wednesday will begin the focus on cast members including Jesus, Mary, Peter, Caiaphas, Judas and Pilate and will encompass the elements of love, hate, pain, denial, victory, defeat and hope.

Services will be held beginning on Ash Wednesday and continue every Wednesday in Lent at 9:30 a.m. and 7 p.m. The community is invited and welcome to be a part of this Christian outreach.
