Ash Wednesday WorshipFebruary 22, 6:30 pm. Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of the season of Lent and is a great time to step up to a more vibrant and growing faith as we prepare for understanding the death and resurrection of Christ. Ashes from the palms from last year’s Palm Sunday are blessed and used to mark the forehead of each worshiper. Childcare for children 3 and under.
Donate blood today. Sunday, February 12, 7:30 am to 12:30 pm. Two buses will be available. Our goal is 50 units of blood.
Jesus Loves the Little Children. Today we remember the children in our community and world who need our love, protection and support. Look inside your bulletin for an insert that lists 10 ways you can give hope to a child. See page 3 in the BEAM to learn how you can sponsor a child at Thembelihle, our church’s partner school in South Africa.
