Theme - Doing What Jesus Did is a two week series based on the Great Judgment in Matthew 25. We will have the opportunity to hear from guest speakers involved in "doing what Jesus did" in sharing his love with others.
Feb. 12 - "I was a stranger and you welcomed me..."
The Rev. Rod Runyan, Director of Fruitbelt Farmworkers Christian Ministry and pastor in the Church of God, will explain his ministry among seasonal migrant workers laboring on area farms.
Theme - Giving it Up -- the Lenten opportunity
Feb. 19 - Ann Susemihl, elder and member of the Adult Form Planning Committee, will lead a discussion on Lenten customs. Our charge during Lent is to remove from our lives those things which come between us and God. It can be a joyous, rather than dour, time in our year. Come share in the wealth of possibilities.

Theme - Lord, Teach Us to Pray: six studies on Spirituality and the Lord's Prayer -- a Kerygma Lenten Study to be led by Phil Susemihl and Pastor Potter during the six Sundays from Feb. 26 - April 1.
The Lord's Prayer as found in Matthew 6:9-13 is among the greatest treasures of faith. This study explores the key phrases of the Lord's Prayer as they lead us to greater spirituality and growth.
The Kerygma resource booklet will be helpful in this study. Please let Pastor Potter know if you wish to register for this series. You may make a donation to secure the booklet. Cost is $14/book. All are welcome. It's not too late to become a part of this study.
