LUCERNE, Calif. – Join First Lutheran Church for a soup supper and its annual Ash Wednesday service.

The soup supper begins at 5 p.m. with the worship service at 6 p.m.

Pastor Chris DelCol explained, “Ash Wednesday is the beginning of Lent, which is a 40-day period on the church calendar (Sundays excluded) where we reflect on our sinful natures and remember the sacrifice made by Jesus to take away our sins.”

He added, “It is also a time of anticipation as we look forward to Easter Sunday where we celebrate Jesus’ resurrection and His promise of everlasting life through our God given faith in our Lord and Savior Jesus.”

The Ash Wednesday service will include the imposition of ashes.

First Lutheran Church is located at 3863 Country Club Drive.
