Attached please find a schedule of the Lenten Season sermons that will be shared by Pastor April, along with aLenten Timeline that explains a little bit about the Lent Season leading up the Easter Sunday.
You might ask……What's with the ashes? The ashes remind us of our mortality and they are also our symbol of mourning and repenting for our sins. These are reminders of our need for a Savior. The ashes placed on the shape of the cross on the forehead of each Disciple transform the ashes into our proclamation that we have such a Savior in Jesus Christ! Ash Wednesday is a vital and holy time as we begin the season of Lent.
Have A BLESSED day and see you at dinner on Wednesday at 6pm!
Due to the freezing temperature expected, Wednesday morning Bible study is cancelled. Right now, we still plan on Wednesday night dinner at 6pm and church wide member informational meeting at 7pm.
On Wednesday, January 30th, at 7PM we will hold a church wide members meeting to share the exploration team's progress on what the missional merger would look like. The exploration team is going to meet four times to plan together. Just two of those meetings will have taken place by the time of this meeting so there will not be a finished idea to share; but we will be able to share written answers to some of the biggest questions we have heard from the congregation and provide updated information. The agenda for the meeting is below. Please continue to fast and pray for this meeting, the exploration team and our entire congregation that we would be guided by God to what will facilitate reaching and discipling those in our community for Christ. May we allow the peace of Christ to reign in our hearts.
