NJLC Events
Come join us! At NJLC, we are out and about in our community! We host a variety of events throughout the year, and we enjoy participating in our town’s celebrations. Keep checking back for more information throughout the year!
We will celebrate the life and faith of Julia Kretzinger as we plant apple trees in her honor. Ashes make excellent fertilizer, and planting these trees will serve as symbols of our Lenten journey. Children are welcome to dig in and help as we plant!
On Wednesday, March 2, 2022 we begin the season of Lent. This year we will focus on the concept of floriography, the secret language of flowers, and it’s connection to the Lenten calendar. We will offer a imposition of ashes in the sanctuary of NJLC at 12:00 p.m., and a special outdoor service and tree planting at 4:30 p.m.
For those who cannot attend a service in person, we again will provide at-home Ash Wednesday kits, available for pickup after the Sunday worship on February 27, 2022, as a “drive up” from 11:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., or you can pick up in the church office on March 1st or 2nd between 9:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m.
