Minister’s Corner

Good morning to you on this last worship Sunday of February. As usual, I am amazed we’ve already gone through two months of this year, but I am excited to start feeling the revival winds of Spring. March signals the rebirth of nature in our parts and a constant encouragement to me that the cold is almost over.

This week, on Wednesday we are starting the traditional season of Lent leading us into the Easter memorial and celebration. It is the perfect time of the year to re-center and re-focus our faith. If you’ve not thought about it, I encourage you to consider giving up in fast, as a spiritual exercise, something that captures your time, your effort, your thought diverting it away from God and replace it with prayer, Bible reading and meditation upon God and His word. I always try to give up at least one food item I like a lot as well as some habit that I find comforting in order to force myself to seek comfort in God and I cannot overstate the benefits. Join me as we purposefully fix our eyes on Jesus leading us to His Cross and to His triumph over death as we march over the next 40+ days to Easter. God is Great!

This Wednesday – February 25th – Family Time & Small Group Devo

This Wednesday, from 6:00 PM we will have our monthly birthdays and anniversaries Potluck. Please make time to come out and celebrate your brothers and sisters and bring a dish to share.

From 7:00 PM since is the Potluck Day we will have a time with songs, prayers and some inspirational stories of faith & God’s love to lift and encourage us through the rest of the week.

February Birthdays: JoAnn McFadden (4th); Kyle McCauley (9th); Harish Sampath (10th); Gary Flatt (14th); Nadya Oja (16th);Sarah Appolson (19th); Bruce Baker (26th)

February Family Movie Night – this Friday from 7:00 PM

This Friday we will watch the movie I Believe - 9-year-old Brian's (Rowan Smyth) pure and innocent faith brings about manifestations of God's extraordinary power that quickly become breaking news. He faces heavy opposition from the world around him, especially from his own father Simon (Matt Lindquist), an atheist TV Newscaster. Brian finds allies in the pastor of a local church (Wilford Brimley) and a wounded U.S. Marine (Jeremy London). Link to Trailer is on the Church Calendar online.

Mark your calendars and plan to attend please – Invite friends!
