LEADING TO EASTER: Searching the Soul
7-Week Lenten Series Leader: Jeff Langford | February 22–April 5 (STARTS THIS SUNDAY!) The events leading up to Jesus' death and resurrection were vitally important in the scope of human history, but they were also profoundly impacting for the human beings who experienced them. People like the disciples, Pontius Pilate, Mary, the soldiers guarding the tomb, and many more. Those events can still impact us today—if we let them. So join us for a time of searching the soul this Easter season.
Game Night @ 2BC | Feb. 27 | 7:00 p.m. | Social Room

Sunday, March 1 2BC Annual Easter Egg Hunt Planning Meeting Imagine in your mind the taste and smell of coffee and warm cinnamon rolls, the sounds of a couple hundred excited children and parents, the sights of a hillside filled with brightly colored eggs and a big, white, fluffy bunny. Do those images remind you of the annual Easter Egg Hunt? Believe it or not, Easter is fast approaching and that means planning needs to begin. If you would like to join our small planning group, please meet with us on Sunday, March 1, in the Social Room at 9:00 a.m. We hope to see you there!

I don’t remember any mention of Ash Wednesday or Lent or Holy Week. We did make note that it was Palm Sunday and Easter. My faithful attendance at a rural non-cushioned-pew, mostly Baptist church, just didn’t include these things as I grew up. My Roman Catholic friends ate fish on Friday. I only knew that because we always had fish sticks at school on Fridays and not being one who enjoys repeat foods I asked why. My Lutheran friends would talk about what they had “given up for Lent” but I had no idea what they meant . . .
