Ash Wednesday,
Feb. 17th is the first day of Lent. By the fourth century
the Western church had determined that the Lenten period of fasting
and renewal should correspond to Christ’s forty-day fast and by
counting forty days back from Easter (excluding Sundays, which
remain “feast” days), arrived at the Wednesday seven weeks before
Easter. Lent is a general time of penitence and renewal for
all Christians and Ash Wednesday became the day that marked the
beginning of the Lenten renewal. The aim of Ash Wednesday worship is

We are thankful for our wonderful floral arrangements each Sabbath. They are being arranged by Dana Crawford, Jill Rufty, and Connie Lesslie. If you would like to provide flowers for Sunday worship service in honor of or in memory of a loved one you can do so by contacting Dana Crawford.

Starting this year, 2010, Youth Night will be held on the first Sunday of each month (instead of every-other-Sunday). The remaining Sundays of the month will be Children’s Church. All youth are invited and encouraged to attend Youth Night. Field trips and different activities are in the planning stages for the future. |
|
After the children's sermon upstairs children 5th grade and down are invited to go downstairs for Children's Church. For February Children's Church will meet the 14th, 21st, and the 28th. |
|
On the 1st Sunday evening of the month, all youth will meet at 5:30 PM and enjoy a meal (Parents are invited) and then break out into groups at 6:00 PM for Youth Night. We will finish at 7:00 PM. |

“Who you spend the most time with is who you will become the most like.” So as we begin our New Year it’s not too late to begin reading the Bible through in 2009 and to give God a devotional time of prayer each day. Look for the 52 Week Bible Reading Plan as you leave today in the narthex. |
