Lent Season 2010 at Little Falls Church

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) About the Lent Season
Q. What is Lent?
A. Literally, "Spring Season" from Anglo-Saxon word lecten, it's part of the church calendar year, the 40 days leading up to Easter (without counting the Sundays).
Q. What is its purpose?
A. Originally, it was an intense time of fasting and prayer for those getting baptized on Easter. Today, we seek to draw closer to God by remembering the suffering, death and resurrection of Jesus during Lent.
Q. How do we do that?
A. Through prayer, penitence, almsgiving, and self-denial (fasting).
Q. Why is it 40 days?
A. In the Bible, we find that Jesus spent 40 days in fasting and prayer before he began his public ministry.
Q. What programs are available to draw closer to God at Little Falls UMC?
A. During Lent, the congregation will be invited to read the Psalms -  prayers for real people and real living - in programs of personal devotions, Sunday worship, discussion groups and in small groups. On Wed. nights, there will be a time of prayer at 7 pm - 7:30 pm in the chapel where communion will be served. Special days of fasting will be observed.

Helping Our Haitian Brothers and Sisters

How Can We Help the Haitian People in the Time of their Need?
  • We are responding to the earthquake in Haiti by supporting the work of  UMCOR - United Methodist Committee on Relief - which has had a long history of relief work in Haiti. In fact, the Director of the UMCOR Rev. Sam Dixon was in Haiti when the earthquake struck and died when the hotel he was staying in collapsed.
  • You may send a donation to UMCOR by writing a check to "UMCOR" with memo "Haiti Emergency" and sending it to our church (139 Main St. Little Falls, NJ 07424) or you may make a direct online contribution by going to www.UMCOR.org; 100% of your donations help the people of Haiti with immediate assistance and long-term recovery.
  • Thank you for caring!
