Thank you in advance for your generosity!

We will collect the One Great Hour of Sharing offering on Palm Sunday, April 2. Look for more information & a giving envelope in this week's bulletin.

Come Make a Joyful Noise with the LPC Chancel Choir

We welcome any adult (18 years and older) who would like to join our choir on Easter Sunday.. We ask that you have a basic ability to read music and learn your part. There will be only two rehearsals (Sunday, March 26 and April 2, at 9:15 am before service). You can even sing with us on those two Sundays in morning worship. If interested (or you know someone outside of LPC who you'd like to invite), just contact me --at CJMarucci@gmail.com, or send a text to 917-647-7545. Short term, easy, and fun!

In keeping with a longstanding Lakewood Presbyterian Church tradition, we invite any believers to take an hour and spend it with Jesus. We ask that you sign up for any hour during the night of Maundy Thursday (April 6) or during the morning of Good Friday (April 7) and spend one hour in your home in prayer and contemplation as we approach Easter. We would like there to be people praying all through the night and morning. There are slots for four people to do this for

each hour. We will have prayer requests available as well as Scripture readings to guide your meditations. Please consider this as a tangible way in which to recognize Jesus’s sacrifice and love for you.

Lenten Bible Study

During Lent, Pastor Joy is leading a Lectionary-based Bible study on Wednesday evenings following dinner. On the Sundays in Lent, we will be looking at the assigned Gospel readings, and in this study, we will be exploring some of the other Lectionary text selections that accompany the Gospel readings. Lectionary readings are intentionally selected to help tell the story of God’s saving work as we move through the liturgical year. Join us in this study to see what God has to say to us through these readings in this season of preparation before Easter. Registration is not required to attend the study.
