Beginning, February 17 (Ash Wednesday) following the evening service we will launch two Porcupine Small Group studies. Both will be held each Wednesday evening throughout the Lenten season. (Feb 17, 24, March 3,10,17 & 24) One group will be built around the book, “The Shack” and the other group will work with “One Anothering”. Both books were used last Fall and received a warm reception. Mark your calendar and stay tuned for more details. See Pastor Paul or Marilyn Hartig if you have questions or if you have an interest in helping with leadership. |

These books are in the library. Please put your name on the card in the back of the book, place it in the box on the shelf. Return the book as soon as possible so others can read it.
