Lenten Challenge |
The One Year Bible challenge is coming. The season of Lent is quickly approaching. Many Christians challenge themselves, during Lent, to avoid some bad habit or start a good one. Consider the challenge of reading the Bible all the way through this year. We're making it easier for you.
Special "One Year Bibles" have been purchased to help you with this challenge. They are set up with all the daily recommended readings together, so you don't have to search through your Bible, just take a bookmark and mark where you leave off. We'd like everyone to take a Bible. If you can, please donate $10 in the slotted box, if you can't do that right now, please take a Bible anyway. Or, a list of the daily reading is available and you can look them up in you own Bible.
Please consider taking up the challenge!

Keep Our Youth In Your Prayers
The 2019 LCMC Regional Youth Event is at Three Bear Resort, Warrens, Wisconsin, March 1-3.
The theme, "Catch the Wave," will take us through several large group sessions with music and speakers, as well as Saturday breakout sessions. Top that off with a couple of hours of free time in the water park, and worship with communion on Sunday, makes for a jam-packed experience for our Youth. And, yes, there will be food.
Pray for safe travel and spiritual renewal for all youth and adults attending this event. May the seeds sown at this gathering produce a generous harvest.
