Lent is almost here!!! This year there is a very short time between Christmas and Lent. Our church-wide Lenten study book this year will be Leonard Sweet’s book The Gospel According to Starbucks. Copies are available in Pastor Christina’s office for $14. Please have a check or exact change available.
“You don’t stand in line at Starbucks® just to buy coffee. You stop for the experience surrounding the cup of coffee. Too many of us line up for God out of duty or guilt. We completely miss the warmth and richness of the experience of living with God. If we’d learn to see what God is doing on earth, we could fully participate in the irresistible life that he offers….God is already in business in your neighborhood. The doors are open and the coffee is brewing. God is serving the refreshing antidote to the unsatisfying, arms-length spiritual life – and he won’t even make you stand in line.”
Choose the group that fits your schedule and then contact the facilitator or Rev. Christina (526-1414 ext 6) and let them know you will be there! Books are available from Rev. Christina for $14.00. Groups will meet for 5 weeks beginning the week of February 10.
