ASH WEDNESDAY: Please begin the season of Lent by coming to the Sanctuary any time between 4 pm and 6 pm on Ash Wednesday February 18. Pastor Pat will be available for an individual Lenten blessing, the Lord’s Supper and imposition of ashes. Come to the Sanctuary at any time during these hours and stay as long as you would like to meditate and pray.
SMALL GROUPS: Please join a small group! Our volunteer leaders are prepared and so is our study, “Living the Eucharist.” Small groups begin during the first full week of Lent; choose the one that best fits your schedule!
Vicki Downing, Bev Currier and Elaine Scheetz are in partnership as leaders of a group that will begin on Friday evening February 20 at 7:15 pm at Bev’s home at 232 Columbia Avenue in Pitman. Call Bev at 589-0325 or Elaine at 609-970-4783 for more information.
Sue Hummel and Judy Reed are in partnership as leaders of a group that will begin on Tuesday evening, February 24, at 7:00 pm at Sue’s home at 845 Hardingville Road in Monroeville. Call Sue at 856-863-0993 or email packard8@comcast.net for directions and more information.
Mike Tedor, Pete Staman, and Greg Staman are in partnership as leaders of a group that specifically welcomes men that will begin on Tuesday evening, February 24, at 7:00 pm at the church in the Memorial Lounge. Call Pete at 256-1405, Mike at 307-0823, or email Greg at staman@rowan.edu for more information.
At the first group meeting schedule details will be discussed. Each group meeting is planned for 90 minutes. I sincerely believe that this will be a very meaningful Lenten experience for everyone who chooses to participate.
On Sunday mornings at 8:30 to 9:15 am, I will be leading a small group on Centering Prayer. This group begins on Sunday, February 22, at 8:30 am in the Memorial Lounge, and concludes on Palm Sunday, March 29. Please come and learn a new way to pray that promises to feed your spirit.
With abiding love and prayers for a Holy Lent,
Pastor Pat
