Daylight Saving Time begins this Sunday morning, March 9th at 2:00am. Please remember to set your clocks ahead one hour before you retire on Saturday night. (You don't want to be late for church!)

Sunday Mornings, 9:30am in Classroom A/B

The Gospels share powerful accounts of Jesus of Nazareth's last days - his political protests, his final meal with the disciples, his betrayal and trial, his death. This Lent, join us for an exploration of the stories and symbols of this extraordinary season, and what it means for us today. Led by Rosemary Sixbey.

This Sunday, March 9th at 5:00pm

The entire community is invited to gather in MIPC's Sanctuary for a casual, contemplative atmosphere. Upcoming evening services on March 9, April 6, and May 18.

The "Walk to Jerusalem" is a Lenten practice where people walk, run, bike, swim, or pray to reach Jerusalem. Participants log their miles, steps, or time, and then we combine our efforts and plan to arrive in Jerusalem by Easter!

Thursday, Mar 20, 10:30am in the A-B Classroom

Super Sixties welcomes Jean Mathisen from AARP presenting a General Fraud and ID Theft prevention overview, with the emphasis on how best to protect yourself and your money from scammers, who are relentless! To plan for seating, RSVP to Ruth Ann at ruthannb@mipc.org, or 206-232-5595 x1002.

Sunday Nights, 6-7pm, Fireside Room

March 23rd (chapters 1-4)

April 6th (chapters 5-end)

As we approach the season of Lent, Kristy is hosting a 2-part book group conversation on Father Gregory Boyle's new book, Cherished Belonging: The Healing Power of Love in Divided Times. In our world marked by division and discord, Boyle invites us to see through Jesus' lens of community and compassion.

The flower service in the sanctuary and in the narthex has been paused on Sunday mornings for the next 6 weeks in observance of Lent, and will resume on Easter Sunday, April 20th.

MIPC has launched a new program called Old Friends Club that fits within our mission to live out our faith by serving the most vulnerable populations in our community. Old Friends Club is a community-based social respite program that is a place of friendship and belonging for those living with dementia. It also provides much-needed respite, education, resources, and support for their caregivers. 

Ages: PreK-8th grade

Sunday School for PreK-4th grade explores rotating themes reflecting different aspects of our faith, with each Sunday focusing on Service, Worship, Art, or Play. Classes are led by caring adult volunteers and meet in the Worship Center (classroom #4) in the Children's Hallway from 9:30 to 10:15 AM.

Grades 5-8 focus on service, projects, and cultivating a loving spirit toward neighbors. In late Fall, Steve J. and Jennifer M. are excited to offer the Our Whole Lives Program, OWL, this year. OWL sexuality education helps children learn and discuss the physical, emotional, and social changes of puberty. Parents and caregivers can be actively involved in the exploration of growing older, values, communication, and decision-making.

Next Confirmation Class, Sunday, March 9.

For grades 8-12.

Middle School Hangout, Sunday, March 9.
