· Five Week Lenten Bible Study begins on Wednesday, March 12, 3- 4:30 p.m. Daniel Coffey, our seminary intern, will lead this study on Meeting Jesus at the Table: A Lenten Study by Cynthia Campbell and Christine Fohr. Introduction to the book: The Gospels are full of stories of Jesus sharing meals with disciples, friends, even tax collectors and Pharisees. Whether multiplying bread to feed a whole crowd, relaxing with his inner circle, or telling curious elites stories about even greater banquets, Jesus imparts wisdom as he shares the wine and grants forgiveness as he distributes the fish. This eight-chapter resource provides biblical insights along with thought-provoking queries regarding our own time, such as whom should we invite to Sunday dinner and who is left out and left behind in our culture today. Illustrations by artist Kevin Burns complement each chapter and invite further meditation on the Gospel story and its meaning for our lives. The cost per book is $10. If you would like to participate, just email Pastor Kathy:
