Midweek and Confirmation classes will take a break and resume in April. Join us for the Lenten services instead.
From Ash Wednesday through Easter, we will be looking at the Signs of Lent. Like signs we see along the roads that tell us what to do, we see signs along the way on our Lenten journey that show is the way to Christ. We will begin on Ash Wednesday, February 14, being reminded to make a U-Turn, turning away from our sins and turning back to God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Every Wednesday and Sunday throughout the Lenten Season we will examine a different sign. Be a part of the Lenten Series!
It is time to take down the Pro-life Cross display. Please help Saturday the 17th at 9:00 a.m.
During Lent we will be collecting donations for Military Bible Sticks. These are given free of charge to members of the Armed Forces. A sample of a Bible Stick is on display in the Narthex. If you would like to help support this project please make a donation to Grace with a memo for Faith Comes Be Hearing. If you have questions please contact Debi Wendorf.
