Greetings!
On Saturday, March 22, Pastor Kessinger hosted a working session to begin developing ways that our congregation can be of assistance to those who have been impacted by the recent layoffs. As a result of that session, we put together a survey to determine the best ways to support our community. The survey is for everyone (those in need and those who want to help) so please fill it out at your earliest convenience, available here. In addition, we will continue to update the announcements with a list of current resources.
To that end, here is one resource that did not make it into the announcements - Job Seekers, you are invited to join the Arlington Economic Development on Saturday, April 5, to get free professional headshots, expert resume advice, and - most importantly - to connect directly with hiring managers from companies and institutions.

Sunday, March 30 - Fourth Sunday in Lent - 8:30 am, 9:45 am, and 11 am
Come and be with us as we hear God's Word and receive Holy Communion during this Lenten season. We are now halfway through Lent, and we will hear Jesus tell the familiar story of the Parable of the Prodigal Son. Each week we depend on our worship leaders to help with the services. On Sunday we are in need of readers for both the 8:30 am and 9:45 am services. We thank all those who volunteer each week!
