Join us Wednesday evenings during Lent starting on March 1. We will be gathering for Holden Evening Prayer in the sanctuary at 6 PM. Worship will be immediately followed by dinner in the Family Center. We are overjoyed that for the first time since Covid, we will be able to gather at the same table for a meal together. As the meal is winding down, we will transition into a time of education and discussion around a video series with Rachel Held Evans. The videos engage what it means to be the church in our day, and are short enough to allow ample time for conversation.

For those unable to attend in person, the Holden Evening Prayer portion of the evening will be livestreamed on our YouTube channel. And a Zoom option will be available for the education piece. (Please contact the church office for the Zoom link.) Sadly, you will have to make your own soup.

Blessings on your Lenten journey, and we hope you can join us. All are welcome!

Continuing our long partnership with St. Andrews community feeding ministries, we will be collecting food March 19-26 for the food pantry. The pantry accepts all canned and shelf stable food, and is in need of:

• Peanut butter, canned stews with meat, tuna, canned chicken, spaghetti sauce, chili, canned vegetables.
• Condiments such as ketchup, mayo, hot sauces.
• Snack bars and school lunch items.
• Adult size disposable underwear.
• And any other canned or shelf stable foods!

You may drop off your food directly into the marked SUV in the visitor parking spot on Sunday mornings or leave it in the church narthex near the St. Andrews basket.

If you prefer, you may donate funds directly to the pantry. They depend upon monetary donations to purchase particular foods. Click here to go to the donation page on our website.
