For the six weeks of Lent, we will have Midweek services to help prepare for the Easter celebration. During this time Fun Family Wednesday activities will be suspended, but there will be a meal offered in the parish hall before the worship service. The menu for the meals is available here.
Our world has adopted the idea, "Jesus did not tell us to obey Him, only to follow Him." Is this true? It would seem so, as much of our "Jesus talk" turns our Lord into a gentle, loving, caring nanny figure, who demands nothing of us and does everything for us. The reality of the Gospels is that Jesus often speaks in very sharp tones with very direct orders. Our Lord Jesus' call for follow Him includes many difficult demands. Through this Lententide, we are going to take a closer look at the hard sayings of Jesus and how we understand them in a very pluralistic world.
