• If you are visiting today, welcome! We pray that you will be blessed as we worship together and want to invite you down for coffee and conversation in our fellowship hall after the service.  If you have any questions about membership or getting plugged in to the life and ministry of our congregation, feel free to ask one of our elders or deacons (you were probably greeted by one as you came in today).  We’re glad you’re here!
• Valet service will be available on Sunday mornings through the end of March. Deacons will be at the south entrance from 9:00-9:25 to park your car for you, and then at the end of the service to retrieve your car.
• The Deacons will have a brief meeting in the Conference Room following the service
• Fasting and Prayer Meeting: until God indicates we should stop, there will be a prayer meeting from Noon to 1 every Wednesday in the Sanctuary.  The Pastor will be fasting and invites the same of you.  Come and go as your schedule allows during the hour.
• All are invited to enjoy supper at church before the Lenten Family Gatherings. You are asked to arrive between 5:30 and 6:00pm; feel free to dine until 6:30. It is the hope that this will make it easier for everyone to attend the Lenten Family Gatherings. Please sign up in the narthex if you plan to attend. Donations accepted to cover the cost of the meals.
• Lenten Family Gatherings held at 6:30pm on Wednesday. Every generation grows up in a slightly (or sometimes, it seems, very) different world, but as much as things change, we also serve an eternal God.  Which is why this year’s Lenten Family Series is entitled “Generations”.  We are going to explore and celebrate all the different generations of people that make up this wonderful congregation, and at the same time, we’re going to talk about our great God, who is the same “yesterday, today, and forever”.  So come and join us on Wednesday nights during Lent for a meal and a trip down memory lane with the original Peter, Paul, and Mary as we listen to the music, watch the commercials, and talk about the God that makes every generation special.
• The 2012 schedule for providing flowers for the sanctuary is on the bulletin board. If there is something special going on in your life, try counting your blessings with flowers. We can share our joys, our sorrows and our memories of loved ones with flowers.
• Looking for an “official” church photographer. You will receive all the wonderful benefits and goodwill of a loving church family as payment for your pictures. Contact the church office to volunteer.
