CONTEMPORARY WORSHIP SERVICE TIME CHANGE: The Church Council has made a decision to try out a new worship time for the Contemporary Worship Service. The new worship time of the CWS will be 9:00 – 9:45 a.m. on Sunday beginning the first Sunday in February. The Contemporary Worship Service is a 45 minute worship service with praise, prayer and proclamation. You are all invited. Please come and join us!
 
LENTEN STUDY: “What if what happened then changes everything now?” Our Lenten Study this year will be a DVD study titled, “The Easter Experience”. This DVD Study is a truly spiritual experience that has the power to change every member in the small group. The six 20 minute episodes bring the passion and resurrection of Jesus to life through dramatic story telling and challenging teaching. Each episode explores a universal theme that is relevant to our lives all year round (ie. “My Life Has a Purpose” & “I Have a Hope that Never Dies”). This 5 week Lenten study will begin on Wednesday February 29 from 7 – 8:30 p.m. Please join us!
 
MESSENGER DEADLINE: This Wednesday, Feb. 15 is the deadline for the March Messenger! Please leave your articles for Char in the church office and she will see that they will be in the next publication! Thank you!!
 
THE 2012 FLOWER CHART is now posted in the Parlor. Please sign up for your special Sunday. Flowers are $30, checks are to be made payable to the FUMC – with altar flowers in the memo line and returned to Char. You are welcome to take your flowers home with you following the worship service.
