Taize Service of Meditation will take place this Tuesday, March 19, 2013 at 6:45 pm in church. All are invited to take forty-five minutes out of our busy-ness and spend some time in meditation as we are drawing close to Holy Week.
The Last Lenten Soup Supper will be held Wednesday during Lent at 6:30 PM at the House of Prayer. We will be viewing the movie “The Passion of Christ” by Mel Gibson.
You are invited for a simple soup supper and then watch segments of the film discussing Jesus response to the violence done to him. The sessions are preceded by Evening Prayer at 6 PM.
