Lenten Soup and Spirit Begins Tonight!
Thursdays, 6:00 - 6:50 PM, Asbury Room
(March 14, 21, 28, April 4, 11) We’ll meet on Thursdays during Lent for soup and bread in the Asbury Room to enjoy a simple meal with one another. We’ll then have a brief time of learning about our United Methodist Social Principles. The General Board of Church and Society's DVD series explores the United Methodist Social Principles and their use in the lives of United Methodists across the connection. After viewing some of the videos and having discussion, we’ll finish up at about 6:50 so that musicians can get to their rehearsals.
If you’d like to help out by making soup, bringing bread, or helping with set up, please use the sign up sheet located on the bulletin board across from Jeff's office beginning this weekend.
