Announcements:
The Lenten worship series features the theme of, "Holding on, letting go" based on the lectionary scriptures. The texts invite us to hold on to what is eternally important and to let go of what gets in the way of Christian discipleship. Next week the scriptures focus on Isaiah 55:1-9; Psalm 63:1-8; I Corinthians 10:1-13; Luke 13:1-9 and Del Glick is message-bearer.
