The Journey of Lent
Special Events in Lent
Reinventing Messiah: Sunday, March 21, 3:00 pm.
Ron Cook will present a fifty-minute talk about the history of the performance of Handel's Messiah.
Joyful Family Fun Day: The Prayer Journey Sunday, March 28 (Palm Sunday), 4:00-6:00 pm
Come and enjoy our prayer journey with activities for all ages and Easter egg hunt, followed by dinner for the entire family. We will have prayer stations for children to learn more about prayer through different types of prayer, crafts, books and more as we take a prayer journey. A prayer path will be set up for the adults to journey through as we enter Holy Week. The prayer path may be walked with a booklet or a personal CD player (we provide) with CD to direct you through each prayer station. All are welcome to come and enjoy this fun event for all ages. Donations will be taken to cover the cost of the dinner.
