Lent Soup Supper and Service Tonight

Youth Observe Regular Schedule  

 

Each week in Lent we gather for food (Soup Supper at 6:15 p.m.), a time of worship and reflection (Lent Service at 7 p.m.) and fellowship (dessert and coffee at 7:45 p.m.).  

 

Youth events for confirmation and high school will follow the usual schedule. Everyone is invited. Please note that there will be child care available during the time of the Lent Service.  

 

Volunteers Still Needed  
In-Home Lay Distributed Communion

 

We are still looking for a few good men and women to join our team for in-home communion distribution. This will be a very rewarding experience - help bring this important element of church worship to the homes of those who can't physically travel to our campus. For just one hour a month, you can bring the full value of this experience to these members. 

 

Anyone interested in becoming a lay communion visitor, or in the ministry in general, please fill out this registration form

 

Please make time to attend a training session on Sunday, March 16, at 10:50 a.m.

 

Thank you for considering this commitment of service as a part of your Lent season.
