Fasting & Praying for Lent, Elder-led Prayer, Life Groups (Pastoral Emphasis for 2/22)

We are reading through the Bible as a church family this year. We're following the 52 week reading plan. We are on week 8. We are in the Lent season , a 40-day period between Ash Wednesday and Easter (not counting Sundays) of prayer and fasting or abstinence. According to the Gospel accounts, Jesus spent 40 days fasting in the desert while enduring temptation from Satan. During Lent, we call everyone to fast and pray. You can decide to do a total fast of all foods or a partial fast of a particular food or activity. We are praying for personal and corporate revival in our church, and our sacrificial giving for this year. Our next Elder-led Prayer is Tuesday, February 24th, from 6 to 7pm. Everyone is invited to join us as we focus on specific prayer needs. If you are not able to attend but have prayer requests, you can submit them online . Join us again for Wednesday Family Worship. Dinner will be served at 6:00pm. We will be studying 1 John 2:1-14 after Praise and Worship

YOUR STORY due today, Ash Wednesday, Single Seasons in Life (Pastoral Emphasis for 2/15)

We are reading through the Bible as a church family this year. We're following the 52 week reading plan. We are on week 7. Last week, we read in Judges, "And there arose another generation after them who did not know the LORD or the work that he had done for Israel." So "it is the task of the former generation to tell the story of God's work to later generations. For God's people today, this supremely means passing on the story of God's greatest work...the Gospel." This is one of the motivations for us wanting to capture YOUR STORY so that we can leave it behind for later generations to know the work of God in our lives and this church. Today is the deadline to submit YOUR STORY, which will be compiled and put into a SCRAPBOOK for the 150th Anniversary. Submit YOUR STORY here . Join us again for Wednesday Family Worship. Dinner will be served at 6:00pm. We will be studying 1 John 2:1-14 after Praise and Worship at 7:00pm and end at 8:00pm.
