Crisis Outreach
Does Your Temple Need Cleansing?
Three evenings! Three inspirational talks!
7:00 pm in the School Music Room
March 10 – Jesus claimed he was greater than the Temple and that He would rebuild it in three days. What does this mean for our conversion of heart?
March 17 – What does it mean to truly worship and how is worship different than prayer?
March 24 – How do we participate in the sacrifice of Jesus? How does that transform us into becoming perfected in worship and prayer?
We welcome back David Seitz, OFS, our guest speaker for these evenings. Join us for one or all three! Sign up here.

6:30 pm (church) Evening Prayer and Talk

We support one another in our prayer.
