Looking for Love - Lent Worship Series
Looking for Love – During the Season of Lent
The Christian scriptures offer many images of where love, grace, forgiveness, righteousness, and healing can REALLY be found. And it is not in the “usual” places. Isn’t it as true of us today as it was of the scriptural authors? Don’t we often look for wholeness and happiness in places that offer only temporary “good feelings” and satisfaction? How many people loved my post? What’s Amazon’s deal of the day? Did my work impress my colleagues? Do I really have enough to make me feel secure for the future?
Lent, the six weeks leading up to Easter, is a wonderfully reflective time to reassess where we are searching for meaning and purpose. We’ll move through stories of Jesus to find out who offers the “real deal.”

"Is There a Schism in the United Methodist Church?”
Most of us have heard that some United Methodist congregations have voted to leave the UMC, but we may not know much more than just that. On Sunday, January 22, the Fellowship Class will host Pastor Tracey and Jay Brim to present information and answer our questions. We are fortunate to have access to such expertise – Tracey for our congregation’s perspective and Jay for the big church (UMC).
What is the issue? What is the plan? And what questions do you have? Everyone is invited. We will meet in the sanctuary to accommodate a larger gathering - starting promptly at 10:10 am. It will also be livestreamed here.
The Fellowship Class hopes that you will join us on the 22nd.
