Season of Lent
The central focus of the Christian year is Easter, celebrating the resurrection of our Lord, His victory over sin, death, and Satan. Each Sunday is a mini Easter!
The period of preparation for Easter is Lent, which begins on Ash Wednesday and lasts for 40 days (excluding the Sundays). Lent is a time of austerity and restraint (traditionally fasting, and also study and meditation in preparation for baptism). The colour of Lent is the sombre colour of violet, characteristic of a subdued time of preparation, in which repentance is prominent. Lent reaches its climax in Holy Week, leading into Easter.

Live-stream troubleshooting
If our live-stream is interrupted by technical problems during a service, we may need to restart the stream elsewhere on YouTube. If so, you might be able to find recovery broadcasts by searching YouTube for "Wyndham Hobsons Bay Lutheran Church Service live"
If technical issues prevent us from live streaming the service, we will still endeavour to record the service and upload it to our YouTube channel as soon as possible following the service for you to view at a later time. If technical issues prevent you from joining our live-stream, and you would prefer to engage with a live-streamed service rather than a recorded service, you might consider visiting in worship with another Lutheran congregation eg. at Good Shepherd, Toowoomba, St Michaels, Handorf or St Johns, Geelong
