THROUGH THE BIBLE
IN 2015: Reading
plans for Read Thru the
Bible in 2015 are on the
lobby table. Bookmarks
with current month’s

readings.
FEB 15th is the deadline to register for the
Winter Jam Christian concert on February 20th

With the colder temperatures and snow on the
ground it finally feels like we are in the Winter
season. Time for Lasagna, Salad and Desserts! If you can help out with the meal this
month, we would greatly appreciate it! Check
the sign-up sheet in the Lobby to see what food
items you can donate. Please have food items

LENTEN BIBLE STUDY:
"He Set His Face to
Jerusalem”
In this Lenten study, we'll explore Jesus’
commitment to go to Jerusalem. The Gospel
of Luke says, “When the days drew near for
him to be taken up, he set his face to go to
Jerusalem” (Luke 9:51). Jesus’ journey to Jerusalem will help us reflect on how we “set
our faces” in life. “As followers of Jesus, we
are called to reflect on and pray about where
we set our faces day by day. Where do we
set our faces in our relationships with God
and with our neighbor? Where do we set our
faces with our ethical choices? Where do we
set our faces when we see those who are
poor and oppressed?” As we set our faces to
Jerusalem and to the ministry, crucifixion,
and resurrection of Jesus, what difference
does it make? What does Jesus’ determination say to us about our commitments and
about our need to grow in love of God and
neighbor?
This is a great opportunity for small groups
and individuals! There will also be a Facebook page where we will share and discuss. Information on this will be available
soon.
Books are available for $7.00 in the Lobby.
Looking forward to the journey!
Two Wheel Chairs and a Walker with wheels are
now in service for those with mobility challenges.
Please do not hesitate to let the greeters & lay
shepherds know of anyone who needs this
service to enter the church.

YOU CAN HELP THE EASTER
BUNNY! EER serves approx.
75 children, and we can help
them have a nice Easter basket
on April 5. Outreach/Witness
are asking for donations of basket grass, candy, 5-inch chocolate Easter Bunnies, egg coloring kits, and 16 count crayons.
The collection box is under the
table in the Lobby. They also
need monetary donations to purchase baskets and
coloring books for each child. You can use a pew
envelope and mark it EER Easter. You are invited
to help assemble the baskets on Feb 28th from 10a
-noon in Roth Hall. They will also be assembling
Ziploc bags filled with candy for those families that
already have baskets to use. Families get help from
EER only once a month, so that is why they need to
have baskets ready for distribution each Monday.
Let’s get hopping!
