MESSAGE FROM KATIE

Save the date for our Ash Wednesday service on February 14th at 6 p.m. in the sanctuary following our normal Wednesday night supper. We would love for you to join us in worship that evening as we begin the Lenten journey together. There will be no kids or youth activities on the 14th; all kids, no matter their age, are invited to worship with us that night! Below you'll find details about our weekly Lenten lunches, held on Tuesdays throughout the season. This Sunday, we will continue in our Mark sermon series. We hope you'll join us for worship either in the early or late service!

On another note, there will be a ministry council meeting next week on February 5th at 6 p.m. in the sanctuary. We will send out more details separately later this week.

See you Sunday,

Katie
