COMMUNITY IN FAITH

A Midweek Lenten Prayer

Gathering

As part of our 40 Days of Belonging journey this Lent, you’re invited to a gentle, guided time of contemplative prayer on Wednesday evenings.
This is not a class and not a discussion group. It is a simple, 35–40 minute space to pause, breathe, and remember that we belong to God before we accomplish anything. Each week will include a brief scripture, guided reflection, and quiet prayer—accessible to anyone, whether you’ve practiced contemplative prayer before or not. If Lent is a season of returning, this is a place to return to stillness… and to the Love that already holds us.
You can sign up on the sheet located on the table under the TV in Fellowship Hall. All are welcome.

40 Days of

Belonging

Beginning the first Sunday of Lent, we will embark on a series called "40 Days of Belonging". The sermons, adult Sunday school class, devotional readings, and a mid-week prayer experience will all explore the theme that nothing takes place outside the realm of God's loving presence.

We are almost out of the "Everything Belongs" books that will inform our Lenten series. If you would like one, you may need to order one from your favorite bookseller or digital bookstore.

40 Days of Belonging Devotionals are available at no cost on the table under the TV in the Fellowship Hall. Devotional readings are scheduled to begin on Ash Wednesday.

Lunch

Outreach Spring Break

The outreach committee will be inviting our neighbors for activities and lunch on St. Patrick’s Day, March 17. This falls during spring break for Ankeny schools. The event will be from 10:00am - 12:30pm, and we are looking for volunteers to help with games and activities or lunch. Add your name to the sign-up sheet on the mission table if you can join us March 17!
