*Draw Close – Thursday Evenings 7:15pm – 8:30pm on Zoom*
The Scriptures of Lent are full of anticipation and curiosity.
They invite us to open our hearts and pay attention to God’s work in the beauty and brokenness of the world around us.
Each week we will approach a biblical text with
*Playful creativity!*
Grab your pencils, paint, fabric, musical instruments
and draw close and see what God is up to!
*Please contact the office or Pastor Ninabeth with any questions you may have and to receive the ZOOM link.*
*Community Garden*
Spring will be here before we know it! A season of growth and new beginnings…..and a new garden! We would like to start a community garden on our church property! We are looking for folks interested in planning, building, planting and any other ideas you have to offer. We would like to call it *The Garden of Eatin’.* If you are ready, willing and able to help, please email Pastor Ninabeth at pastorninabeth@gmail.com.
