Service Sunday, March 8th

Synopsis:

Today, Jesus meets a Samaritan woman at Jacob’s well and breaks every social, religious, and cultural barrier to offer her the gift of “living water.” Beneath the surface of their conversation lies a deeper story of reconciliation—between Jews and Samaritans, between divided peoples, and between humanity and God. Through Christ, the true place of worship is no longer a mountain or a temple, but a relationship rooted in spirit, truth, and transforming grace.

Lenten Bible Study starting February 24, 2025. Tuesdays at 1:15 pm

Join us this Lent for a five‑week journey through Luke’s Gospel, exploring the moments where Jesus’ love, courage, and costly obedience shine with transforming clarity.

Each week invites us into a different scene of Christ’s Passion—from His table fellowship to His agony in Gethsemane, from His bold confession to His purposeful silence, all the way to the spectacle of His death on the cross. Together we’ll listen, reflect, and discover how these moments shape our faith, our discipleship, and our daily lives.

Through Scripture, discussion, prayer, and hymnody, we’ll explore:

February 24th Jesus’ radical welcome at the table

March 3rd Jesus’ honest agony and obedient trust in the garden

March 10th His courageous confession before the council

March 17th His quiet strength before Pilate and Herod

March 24th His self‑giving love on the cross

Come walk with Christ through the story that changes every story—including ours.
All are welcome as we seek deeper faith, honest reflection, and renewed hope in the One who gave Himself for us. Blessings, Calvin
