LETTER FROM KATIE • March 4, 2026
Dear Holy Comforter,
I have really enjoyed the silence during our services this Lent as we’ve taken time to pray through the steps of the Examen Prayer together.
LETTER FROM KATIE • February 25, 2026
Dear Holy Comforter,
I closed my sermon this past Sunday with a prayer for Recollection from Teresa of Avila.
Gracious Friend, give me the grace to recollect myself in the little heaven of my soul where You have established Your dwelling. There You let me find You, there I feel that You are closer to me than anywhere else, and there You prepare my soul quickly to enter into intimacy with You…
Experiencing Lent With Our Children
Dear Holy Comforter parents and families,
It was good to see many of you at our Shrove Tuesday pancake dinner and our Ash Wednesday service.
Lent has begun. This season is similar to Advent in that it’s a season of waiting and preparation, and both share the color purple in the liturgical calendar.
LETTER FROM KATIE • February 19, 2026
Dear Holy Comforter,
It was great to see so many of you Tuesday night at our Shrove Tuesday pancake dinner (Thank you to Elena and Tom Benning for helping us pull it off.) and last night at our Ash Wednesday service.
I encourage you to take a look at my letter from last week and Matt Wooldridge’s letter to CHC families which you can find here, to explore the ways we’ll be preparing for Easter together.
