Saving Jesus Study during Lent – as we entered into the season of Lent a study began on Wednesday nights at 7:00 p.m. Many of you took part in this study last year and found it to be very helpful in your faith journey. Those who would like to participate and continue in this study are encouraged to sign-up on the Connections Clipboard. The group will continue to meet on February 27, March 5, 12 and 19.

The Lenten Special Offering – has been designated for Habitat for Humanity. Those wishing to participate in this offering will help to fund the build of a home for a family and new hope for their future. You may give by using the pew envelopes (please mark for Habitat), the specially marked envelopes in your giving envelopes or the envelopes marked Habitat in the pews.
