Devotion of the Week: During this season of Lent, we have been guided by the theme: Be Gracious to Me. We have reflected upon our sinful condition, our need for a Savior, and our troubles. At the same time, we have continued to receive the blessings given to us by the redeeming sacrificial death and resurrection of Christ our Lord. Jesus suffered and died to earn for us full deliverance from sin and death. May God continue to be with us and be gracious to us, as we walk to the cross during this Holy Week knowing that we are forgiven and redeemed because Jesus has paid for all of our sins. Be gracious to me, O Lord! Amen.

Serving in Worship: The Cherub Choir (grades 2-4) will sing in church this Sunday. Please have your child(ren) in the music room ready to warm up at 9:10am.

Sunday Morning Bible Class: “The Land at Last” is the title for Sunday’s lesson. For forty years, the Israelites wandered on sandals that didn’t wear out and ate daily doses of manna. Following Moses’ death, Joshua prepares to lead a new generation into the Promised Land. This time, the floodwaters of the Jordan River stand in the way; but, hearkening back to the Red Sea crossing, the people pass through on dry land as they gather twelve stones for a memorial to God’s faithful care for His people. As a family, discuss how God leads us today. Everyone is welcome to join us at Bible Study.
