Easter at First Church Tulsa

Lent begins with an Ash Wednesday worship service when we are reminded that, “From dust you have come and to dust you will return.” During Lent, we are invited to “Stay close to the master,” focusing on our union with Christ through baptism whereby we die to our old self so that we might live anew with Him.
