Getting ready for the Lenten Series and Dinner

As many of you know the Lenten Series and Dinner begins this week. On Wednesday, March 4th and then for 5 Wednesdays after that we will be sharing in a meal and taking a deeper look into the Lord's Prayer. I am excited for the time that we will be spending together and for the discussion that will happen around our tables. For those of you who are wondering what the classes and the meals will be like let me give you this small taste...

  • Dinner begins @ 5:30 and the first of our 5 meals will be a Taco Bar. Bring the family and have some great food!
  • The Class begins at 6:15 with the youngest amongst us heading out to Joyful Noise (our Children Choir) or hanging out in childcare. Each week we will be looking at a section of the Lord's Prayer and spending some time digging deeper into what we are saying and praying about. Week 1 will focus on the start of the prayer, "Our Father, who are in heaven..." and will feature about 15 minutes of presentation (by yours truly) and then 20-30 minutes of discussion around our tables. We have recruited some fantastic table leaders who know the materials inside and out and will be great at leading discussions.
  • Finally the class will end at 7:00. Parents with children in Joyful Noise can pick up their children and head on home. We will be needing some help with clean-up and so anyone able to lend a hand is most appreciated
Check back here tomorrow for a behind the scenes look into my thoughts on the first session and the idea of "Father."

Peace,
Brett
