AFFIRMATION

 

I let it BE and live in the NOW.

EASTER SERIES CONTINUES SUNDAY

Please join us for the 10 a.m. service Sunday, when we will really get in the trenches of participating in the experience of Easter. Rev. Brenda says the Wednesday of Jesus' last week will be our focus. We'll explore betrayal - what that looks like for us - and the meaning of atonement. Trust me, it's NOT what you think!

 

IRISH JAM BAND PROVIDING SPECIAL MUSIC SUNDAY

Irish Jam Band

In honor of St. Patrick's Day, our special music Sunday will be the Irish Jam Band. Band members are Joe and Deborah Byrd on guitar, Carlis Faurot on the fiddle, Laura Phillips on the flute, and Michael Crist on the drums. The band plays Irish music that goes back many centuries, including ballads and high-energy instrumentals. The group will also play a 15-minute prelude before the service, so get there early!

 

UPDATE ON BOOKS

Mary Beth McGuire has some news to pass along from Sacred Grounds and Books. She says that those of you anxiously awaiting delivery of "The Last Week" and "I Need Your Love, Is That True?" won't have much longer to wait! Both items are on back order with DeVorss Publishing, but the ordering department has told her they will be delivered as soon as possible. Both will make wonderful spring readingHere's a bit of trivia from the bibliophiles: The word Lent is derived from the Anglo-Saxon word Lencten, which means spring!
