An Important Theme of the Lenten Season is the Humanity of Christ
In Jesus, God became human and fully experienced the wide range of emotions that we all encounter in life. A part of being human is the need for help from others when loss seems overwhelming. Consider having a trained Stephen Minister in your life. To find out more, talk to one of the pastors, contact us by email.
Good Friday Cantata – Friday, April 7 at 7:30
