This year’s devotional for adults is entitled Emily Dickinson and The Poetry of Lent: A Lenten Devotional. Lent is a time of reflection and insight, a change of seasons—and Emily Dickinson, one of the world’s most beloved poets, was also an avid gardener and a careful observer of the natural world. In this Lenten devotional, biblical texts and simple, accessible practices weave together with Dickinson’s poetic vision, creating a 40-day journey into the heart of the holiest week of the year.
Pick up a copy from the vestibule, and all you’ll need is your favorite Bible (Dickinson’s poems are included in the devotional). Week by week, we’ll walk through the garden together toward Easter morning, with Emily Dickinson as our guide. (saltproject.org)
