Lenten Study


Lenten Study.  It is not too late to join the Lenten Study: “Finding Your place in the church.”

NEWLY ADDED! If you cannot make a daytime class, email me and I will send you a video summary of each lesson once a week during Lent!  Based on the fivefold gifts listed in Ephesians

chapter four, we will learn about each of these vocational gifts and how they can be employed for the glory of God in this church’s ministry. We will meet Wednesdays from 11:00 – Noon; Feb. 7 – March 27th, in room 12 (use chapel entrance). Pastor McDowell & Mrs. Louise McIntosh will lead this together. A spiritual gift assessment will reveal to reach person how you are gifted to serve God in our church. If you are interested and able to attend, please email pastorjeffmcd@yahoo.com so ample materials can be prepared. If you want the video summary, email me as well.   In Christ, Pastor Jeff McDowell
