The Lenten Tuesday session will be hosted by Gretchen Martin, beginning at 7 pm with the service of Evening Prayer followed by a meatless pot-luck supper. The discussion topic for the evening will be the first Sorrowful Mystery, the Agony of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane.

Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith unto the disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder. And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and very heavy. Then saith he unto them: “My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye here, and watch with me”. And he went a little farther, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying: “O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt”. – Matthew 26,36-39
