Sunday Preview (February 26, 2023)

Join us from February 26-April 9 as we go on our Lenten journey towards Easter. We will be looking at the 7 ‘I AM’ statements that Jesus made in the book of John. These statements re-imagine how we understand the Christ that came, the Christ that resurrected from the dead, and the Christ that empowers us to continue the good work of love and justice.

February 26 | I AM the Light of the World

This Sunday, we will also incorporate some elements from our Ash Wednesday service that was canceled on Wednesday night.

Good Neighbor Meal – This Saturday!

The next Good Neighbor Meal is this Saturday, February 25th. Sign up here to help prepare and serve.

NEW PODCAST!

We’ve started a PODCAST!

Peace | The Podcast can be found on Apple, Spotify, Amazon Music, or almost anywhere you find your podcasts.

Most of what you will hear are the Sunday morning messages, with a few additional elements of the Sunday service.

There is also a new page on our website that helps you navigate to the podcast home page. We will also try to embed episodes on this page.

Do you have a specific need?

Do you want to share a specific celebration of gratitude?

Peace Prayers is a space to share specific prayer requests and specific celebrations of gratitude. These are not going to be private…these are public. Our plan is to put them in the bulletin and/ or on a slide in The Commons, and include them in the Tuesday News weekly email.

We invite you to share with one another so we can be a praying people – both in times of hurt and struggle, and in times of joy and celebration.
