Dear POVUCC Friends,
On the Second Sunday of Lent, we will continue exploring our theme, "God's Promises." This week our story centers on the promise God made to Abraham, promising to make of him a great nation. What the story tells us is that despite all odds, Abraham and Sarah welcome a son, Isaac, and that upon this birth, God's promise is fulfilled. What we find upon greater examination is that the story of Abraham and Sarah is one that is full of complexity and of promises delayed. It is a story with many twists and turns, illuminating the realities of the faith journey as we covenant to be God's people. Please join us as we continue to reflect on the promises of God, both when they are fulfilled and when they seem not to be. As always, wherever you are on life's journey, you are welcome to join with us as we worship and fellowship together.
We will continue our worship format on Zoom. At 10:00 am on Sunday morning we will worship together on Zoom, walking through an abridged version of the "Worship from Home" service. If you wish, you can print out a copy of the Worship from Home PDF for your use during the Zoom worship time. Please note that most of the content on the Sunday Zoom is the same as what's included in the Worship from Home PDF below, but not every element on the PDF will be included in our Zoom worship.
If you wish to join us on Zoom, please log in at 9:50am so that we have time to greet one another and take our virtual seats. While we hope to see your faces, you do not have to be on camera to attend. You may turn off your camera or dial in with a land line (with this option, you will be able to hear what is happening in the service as it is being spoken live or played via pre-recorded video). We will stay on after the service is complete to share a time of fellowship. During the Lenten season, we will use the fellowship time to create or share the crafts provided in the Lent at Home resource box designated for the week. The Sunday craft and explanation will be share in the Friday E-news.
Thank you to Jimi Valiente-Neighbours for providing our Children's Moment this week. Continued thanks to Andy and Church Pianist, Chad Kemp, for providing worship music for each Sunday's service.
