FPCR Weekly ePress

Hello First Presbyterian Church,

Did you know that the Arts Alive ministry has created meditation stations for you to use during the Lenten season? There are more than a dozen meditation stations set up all over the church. You could journey through them all in one go, or spend time at a couple stations one day and peruse the others on another day. The church is typically quiet on Monday and Thursday afternoons. You are welcome to come and pray at the stations anytime the church office is open.

Your staff team is gearing up for Holy Week and Easter...and it's not even March yet. On Maundy Thursday, we will be having "dinners for 8" in people's homes. Around the table, you'll have the opportunity to fellowship and to pray. Sign up using the link below. On Good Friday, at 6:00 pm, we will have a special service of Shadows and Song in the sanctuary. On Easter morning, we'll have a service outside on the front steps at 8:00 am and then a service in the sanctuary at 10:30.

Journeying together,

Pastor Rosy
