Pastor's Preview:
Dear Hope Family,
 
What a dramatic shift in weather today, and yet we are closer to spring every day. Hallelujah! Today, I am so thankful that I don't live a 100 or so more miles north. They can have the snow.
 
As we inch a little closer to Easter, this Wednesday we kick off our Lenten journey with Ash Wednesday, the first day of a 46-day journey. Our Ash Wednesday service will be held on March 1 at 5:30 pm. This service will include communion and imposition of ashes.
 
The incredible part of Lent is not only remembering the promises of God, but looking forward to things that will come. Students in first grade through fifth grade who would like to learn about Holy Communion and begin partaking in the Lord's Supper once a month are invited to come to First Communion Class. This class starts this Saturday, Feb. 25 at 9:00 am. Click here for details and to register. First Communion will be celebrated on Maundy Thursday.
 
In last week's sermon, you heard Pastor Mike challenge all of us about the importance of having three to five key friendships. Many of you have asked me over the past six months how to find a life group at Waukee. In response to all the emails and inquires, I am excited to share that starting on Tuesday, March 7 at 6:30 pm, we will have our first Group Launch. For six weeks, I invite you to come, meet those in our congregation and discover new life found in community. It's a great way to know and be known! Register here.
 
This weekend, we conclude our sermon series "Relationship Status." We'll look at Hebrews 13:1-9 and what romantic love looks like from a biblical perspective. Things are sure to heat up!
 
See you this Sunday!
 
Pastor Pat
 
P.S. A NEW Women's Study: "Restless" by Jennie Allen
starts Tuesday, Feb. 28 at 9:15 am. This eight-week study will look at the life of Joseph, and see how his passions, relationships and suffering fit into the greater story of God - and how your story can do the same. It's a practical study for women to see God's purposes. Childcare is available.
