2018 Lenten Worship Series
Stations of the Cross
Wednesdays through March 28
12 noon in The Sanctuary
Light Lunch
Light lunch will be served in the Family Life Center following noon worship services each Wednesday. The cost is $4.
Menu for March 28: baked potatoes and salad fixings prepared by the Belin Chancel Choir
Pennies for Lent
Offerings collected at our Wednesday Lenten services and Pennies for Lent collected on Sundays during Lent will be donated to two Belin mission projects. Creekfront Salkehatchie is a local mission of Belin Memorial. Each year teams of youth and adults from around the Carolinas spend a week repairing houses for those in need in our community. The ZOE Project empowers vulnerable children to move beyond charity, transforming entire communities to become socially, economically, and spiritually strong.

"Around the Table of the King"
Maundy Thursday, March 29 | 7 PM
Just hours before He was condemned to die, Jesus gathered with His disciples to share a meal and some final words. Listen in to what might have happened in the Upper Room that night with this dramatic retelling of the story set against a backdrop of stirring music. Through this Maundy Thursday presentation, the glory of Easter morning becomes even more meaningful. The Sanctuary's narthex doors open at 6:15 PM. Child care is available in the Educational Building. Before you go to the Easter garden, join us "Around the Table of the King."
