QUILTING CLASS CONTINUES

Calling All Quilters

If you put down your needles over the holidays, it’s time to get quilting. We’ll start meeting again on the first Thursday in January, the 7th, at 10:00 a.m. If you’re working on something, bring it along. If you finished some project, bring it for show and tell. I’m going to do a demonstration class for you all on how to use stripes for wonderful pieced blocks, for borders and for binding. We’ll also take time to discuss if we want to have a class project for the winter/spring and what we might like to do. I can’t wait to see you all and start quilting again.

LENTEN SERVICES

Our Lenten soup suppers begin February 24 and continue each Wednesday through March 24 at 5:30 p.m. following worship in the Fellowship Hall and after the Maundy Thursday service on April 1. A sign-up sheet will be on the table in the narthex for those who could make soup or provide sandwiches or cookies and help clean up.

A free-will offering will be taken for those attending the meal and will be used for the Kitchen Fund.

FELLOWSHIP BRUNCH

We are having a Fellowship Brunch!

The March Fellowship function will be Sunday, March 14, and it will be a brunch between services so we can fellowship with the folks who attend early church. It will be potluck so dig out your favorite brunch recipes to share with your church family.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

HOLY WEEK SERVICES

		Palm Sunday Worship 28 March Sunday morning services at 9:00 and 11:00 a.m. feature the story of Jesus’ Triumphant Entry into Jerusalem. Special hymns and anthems will be sung and at 11:00 there will be a palm processional for the children.
		Maundy Thursday Worship 1 April On this night when we remember the institution of the Lord’s Supper. We too will gather around tables like disciples of long ago. We’ll meet in the Fellowship Hall at 5:05 p.m. like we have on previous Wednesdays and the meal with Jesus that will be our focus will be Jesus’ Last Supper. Our communion service will be around the tables. Following the worship time we will have another meal around the tables – soup, sandwiches and cookies. Come and share in food and fellowship with the Lord Jesus Christ and with each other.
		Good Friday Worship 2 April This solemn day we remember Jesus’ death on the cross. Our service begins at 5:05 p.m. in the sanctuary. Readings of the last events of Jesus’ life and hymns and other special music will help us think on Jesus’ suffering for us. Candles will be extinguished after each of the reading, symbolic of the darkness of the day Christ died. There will not be a meal after this service.
		Easter Sunday Worship 4 April We celebrate resurrection at both the 9:00 and 11:00 services. The sanctuary will be decorated with lilies and triumphant music will lift our hearts. The sacrament of the Lord’s Supper will be served. Following the second service an Easter Egg Hunt will be held for the children.
