My God, My God
By Margie Gaudet

This Sunday, I would have led a discussion around one of the chapters in the book that we are following in our Pope Hall class, Jesus is the Question. Even if you haven’t been a part of our book group, we can all gain a lot I think by a bit of reflection around Copenhaver’s Chapter 11: “A QUESTION FROM THE CROSS”.

Typically, Jesus used questions as a favorite teaching tool, asking things that might not have an easy answer, requiring our participation and leading us to find answers about the Kingdom inside of ourselves.

All middle and high-schoolers are invited to join Julia Golding for a youth group virtual chat this afternoon (Sunday) using Zoom. Email Julia for the details: youthformationdirector@gmail.com. 

Our Youth Director, Julia Golding, has been using social media to encourage St. Luke's kiddos of all ages to answer this call from St. James Place... 

"Assisted Living residents at St. James Place would love to receive letters from family, friends, and strangers! Please mail letters to 333 Lee Drive, c/o Emily Bozeman. If you have a specific resident you'd like to receive your letter, please print their name on the back of the envelope. Otherwise, your letter will be given to someone who doesn't receive one. Thank you!" 

Inspired by the "Picture This" class that our middle-schoolers have enjoyed each Sunday this year, we've put together a Lenten photo-a-day challenge and we hope everyone- young and old- will participate! Let's get our creative juices flowing as we reflect on the season of Lent. This week's schedule:
TODAY!: prayer
MONDAY: fasting
TUESDAY: prepare
WEDNESDAY: truth
THURSDAY: wilderness
FRIDAY: king
SATURDAY: servant

1) Snap a photo that captures what the word-of-the-day means to you.
2) Share your photo on social media, being sure to tag us and use #stlukesathome. Photos (and questions) can also be emailed to anne@stlukesbr.org.
3) We'll all get to enjoy them online, and we'll share a few right here on Fridays.
