The Season of Lent

a time to prepare

The season of Lent begins on Ash Wednesday, March 5, and is a time when many Christians prepare their hearts for Easter Sunday with self-reflection and repentance that help us grow closer to God.


Throughout Lent, FaithWestwood offers several opportunities to participate in this important season

through worship, service, and study.


Visit our Happenings page to see what FaithWestwood has planned for this year's Lenten season

Let Us Pray for You

We believe that by lifting prayers to God, we open lines of conversation with him that lead to strength, peace, and understanding, no matter what our circumstances.


If you would like to submit a prayer request, please send an email to prayers@faithwestwood.com.

In your request, be sure to include your name and whether you would like the prayer to remain private or be shared with our congregation.
