Adult ForumFebruary 17 Earth Day Video Last time we attempted to observe Earth Sunday, 2012, time did not permit us to do justice to the subject. Let's try again. RENEWAL is the first feature-length documentary film to capture the vitality and diversity of today's religious/environmental activists. People of faith, regardless of their faith tradition, are becoming more and more conscious of our role as caretakers of the earth.
Presenters: Pastors
Living the Word for Children and Youth
This Sunday the children and youth will focus on Luke's account of the Temptation of Jesus (4:1-13). The children will learn that the devil tempted Jesus to sin but He did not. The Youth will discuss how Jesus trusted solely in God, and be encouraged to turn to God when they experience temptation, doubt and struggle. The children meet in Sandrock Hall at 10:10 for the opening and conclude the hour in their classrooms. This Sunday all youth will meet together in the middle school room upstairs.

Each Wednesday during Lent, our services will begin with a call to worship. We will have candles placed on a crown of thorns. Each Wednesday, a candle will be extinguished, leading up to the last candle, the Christ candle.
Our Lenten dramas are based on Luke 14:16 when Jesus told the parable of the "Banquet of the King." The dramas focus on Christian worship.
