Associate Pastor Nancy Benson-Nicol welcomes a Mosaic of Voices, inspired by the vision and work of the Mosaic Project, which is initiated by member Richard Knorr and sponsored by the Spiritual Formation Team. We journey through Lent, gifted with the inspiring and moving perspectives of members of our faith community—in their own words. Each guest responds to these two questions: “How did you first learn about or experience the season of Lent?” and, “As you enter the season this year, what truth about yourself is Lent asking you to face?” This week, as we close our Mosaic series, we hear from Pastor Nancy herself. Thank you for joining us for these midweek moments in our Lenten journey.
