Words from the Pastor
Greetings Westside,
It is hard to believe, but this Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week. Here are some quick updates for the coming week.
Connection/Worship:
-
This coming Sunday is Palm Sunday and we will continue our online worship via Facebook Live at 11:00 a.m. Facebook users, please comment that you are with us during the live broadcast and pass the peace with one another. For obvious reasons we will not be celebrating Holy Communion, but I do encourage each of you, as you gather around the dinner table with your families on Sunday, to share with each other how God is moving in your life, how He has surprised you with joy, and how has He made clear to you that He is with you in the midst of these challenging times. As Methodists, we call this time of sharing about the goodness of God around a meal a "Love Feast," it is not the sacrament that is Holy Communion but it is a great opportunity to celebrate the faithfulness of God.
-
Being that this is Holy Week we will also have a Tenebrae service via Facebook Live on Friday night beginning at 8:15. We will listen to songs of the faith, here the scripture readings of the passion of Jesus, and extinguish candles in an effort to prepare our hearts to receive the risen Jesus on Easter Sunday.
-
Discipleship:
-
We will have our 2nd installment of Sunday School this Sunday. Nancy’s women’s class at 9:45, the men at 11:45 and youth at 1:00.
-
Our second week of studying 1st Thessalonians will be Tuesday night at 6:30 and we will pick up at verse 7 of chapter 1.
Missions:
Once again, we will serve our meal on Wednesday. The menu this week is chili. Last week we served 90 meals via pickup and delivery. If you need a meal or know someone that does please text Nicole, Margie or myself by Wednesday at noon.
