AND AN EARLY FAT TUESDAY BEIGNET-FEST!
Join us at 9:30AM Sunday March 6th for a chance to sign up to take on a special Lenten discipline for the season of Lent and to munch on a Beignet or two. Beignets are puffy fried dough French “doughnuts” usually associated with New Orleans and Mardi Gras and covered in powdered sugar. Pastor Keith will be frying up batches throughout the Sunday school hour for our pre “Fat Tuesday” celebration. While you enjoy the Beignets and coffee, why not check out the information on some ways in which you can take on a spiritual discipline for Lent? Most people associate Lent with giving something up, while others use the seasons (which is the time between ASH WEDNESDAY and EASTER) to take on a practice that draws them deeper into relationship with God and strengthens their faith. We will have tables set up with some of our ministry leaders there to offer suggestions and support for you from the ministries they lead. At each table there will also be commitment cards to assist you in “declaring” your Lenten discipline and to request support or share fellowship, if you desire, for your Lenten journey. There will also be a table with devotional and spiritual books, handouts with daily Bible readings, and more! Our Faith Reflection Questions on the back of our worship slip will change for the season of Lent to invite reflection on your Lenten experience.
