Join us for Lent and Holy Week as we reflect and recognize the beauty in Christ’s last days of his earthly ministry. Whether you’ve been walking with Jesus your whole life or if this is your first Lenten season with him, you have a place in this church. There are many opportunities at North Olmsted Friends and Elyria Friends to encounter the living God. We look forward to spending this sacred time with you.
