Third Sunday in Lent
Join us in person and online for worship service starting at 9:55 with gathering music.
…together the impossible is possible
One of the great gifts God has given us is that we don’t have to do faith alone. When God gave us the
Church, God gave us people to encourage us, stretch us, challenge us, teach us, and support us through the
ups and downs of life and faith. Throughout Scripture, we see the importance of community and the ways
God calls people together. This Sunday, as continue our series “Tell Me Something Good,” we’ll explore the
good news that together, the impossible is possible.
If you watch the service online, please take a moment to click the link in the online description or here
