2010 Season of Lent
We invite everyone to LUMC's Lenten Experience for five Wednesday nights during Lent beginning February 24. Each evening will start at 5:30 p.m. with a community meal in Grant Fellowship Hall. At 6:00 p.m. a variety of Lenten Experiences for children, youth, and adults, will be offered. Each "experience" is designed for introspection, mission, and meditation. (February 24, March 3, 10, 17, 24)
Adults have a choice of two options for 2010 Lenten Study:
First, a series called "Studying the Trinity with our Forefathers," led by David Haysley. The goal of this four-week workshop is to discover how is God three persons in one. This workshop is based on the book, The Case for God, by Karen Armstrong. Second, a series called "Emancipating Teenagers - A New Stage of Development for Parents", led by Glen Gravelle and Steve & Lorna Jamieson.
Lenten Series for Youth & Children
Our Youth and Children will have special Wednesday Lenten Series experiences designed just for them. LUMC's Children's Ministry will lead our last Wednesday Night Lenten Experience on March 24 with a special presentation called "Harriet's Easter Hunt."
