Thanks To The Following for Our Lenten Devotionals and Gathering Messages:

Devotionals

Asbury Office Staff: Cyndi Johnson, Carol Minish, Sue Staehler, and Audrie Weissman, for dedication and patience in understanding the intricacies of preparation and printing, which they have undertaken with smiles and great humor!

 My fellow members of the Editorial Committee, Teresa Cunningham, Jim Esch, Ann Gile and Dennis Stevenson for the hours they committed to editing devotionals which reduced my workload enormously.

 Bill Erdman for his supporting websites: asburyadvent.com, this website asburylent.com and asburydevotionals.com.

The Contributors who searched their hearts and minds, prayed a lot, thought a lot and then were willing to leave their comfort zone, write and submit their devotionals.  They were God's hands as they responded to the Holy Spirit and committed to better know the love of Jesus Christ and pass it on!

 The Readers who are blessed to read, meditate, share, commit their love and pray for themselves and others during this Lenten Season.

 Pastors Durwood, Will and Barbara for trusting God and for their guidance and support in continuing this worthy Asbury tradition.

 Tom Moore and his team of Speakers for their faithful commitment in bringing this year's inspirational Lenten Gatherings with the theme “Hope Through Faith

Gatherings

 The Contributors who stepped out of their comfort zone and provided us with messages centered on the theme, "Hope Through Faith". They were God's voice as they shared their thoughts.

Pastors Durwood, Will and Barbara for conducting the imposition of the ashes, Ash Wednesday.  And for their support in continuing the tradition of the Lenten Luncheons / Gatherings - now in their fifty-fourth (54) year.

The neighborhood restaurants for their food donations for the first six Gathering lunches and the UWF for the Seder meal.

The luncheon table setups, beverages and cleanup are blessings given to us by Mel Frey, Camille Piering and Sheryl Moore and other volunteers.

Tom Moore, Gathering Organizer and his team of Speakers for their faithful commitment in bringing this year's inspirational Lenten Gatherings

 AND

Finally, we thank God for His goodness and blessing.

In a 2018 church meeting, the design and hosting of the 2018 Advent devotions website was accepted on a no cost basis to the church.  Since then, yearly Advent and Lent devotionals plus "Connection" and related websites have been made available in the same spirit.

  The church is free to reference this website at their discretion.  The WebMaster is sensitive to the wishes of the church and will continue to host them in a proper and timely manner.
