Lake Cities United Methodist Church invites you to a meaningful Ash Wednesday service on Wednesday, February 18th at 6:30 PM, marking the beginning of the season of Lent. This traditional service is a time of reflection, repentance, and spiritual renewal as we prepare our hearts for the journey toward Easter. Through prayer, scripture, and the symbolic imposition of ashes, the congregation is encouraged to honestly examine their lives, acknowledge their need for God’s grace, and recommit to following Jesus. All are welcome to join in this contemplative worship experience for the whole family.

Join us on Wednesday, February 11, 2026 for our February Wacky Wednesday! We will be creating Valentine’s Day cards for a local retirement home as our service project! Join us for Food, Fun, Fellowship and share your heart with others!

Bring a Friend!

Laity Training Day is a FREE virtual training designed for those serving on Board of Stewardship, Lay Leadership, or Lay Servant Ministries, as well as anyone interested in understanding how the board and leadership roles support the work of the church.

Participants will hear from our Co-Conference Lay Leaders and Bishop Ruben Saenz Jr., and will have the opportunity to attend breakout sessions focused on specific boards or leadership areas, so you can return to your church informed, confident, and equipped.

Note: If you’re watching as a group, only one person needs to register to receive the link. We’ll just ask for a list of participants' names and emails so we can celebrate the gathering and follow up with your team.

For questions or additional information, contact Rev. Derek Jacobs, at derekjacobs@htcumc.org.
