*Great Thanks to Steve Chan for leading the Sunday School study "Between Heaven and Mirth." May those who participated be blessed with an extra measure of joy and laughter in their spiritual lives. Next week, we begin a new 5 week study with Pastor Emily and guests on Radical Hospitality. You are encouraged to participate and go deeper into one of our 4 ministry priorities. Sunday School begins promptly at 9:30 a.m. in the Annex. You are requested to be on time!
*Sundays of Uniting Prayer (SOUP) Begins - All are invited to follow the sound of the gong to the Annex following worship for a time of silence, reflection, sharing, and prayer. Great thanks to our soup providers today: Gloria, Burt & Jane, as well as Peggy, our bread provider!
*Prayer Invitation: Please hold Cyrus Ng and Jacinto Obrera in prayer through Lent as they prepare for baptism and confirmation.
*Need a LIFT? Then, here’s some good news for you. But, let’s start with another easier question. What do 3 choruses, a women’s orchestra and Aeri have in common? Give up? They're all part of a benefit concert for the Food Pantry at Lake Merritt UMC on Sat., Mar. 29th, at 4:00 p.m. As partners with LMUMC for the past 4 years, we’ve had wonderful experiences in helping to feed the community. Let's go further by enabling them to purchase the food we distribute. Benefit ticket prices are Student/Seniors: $20; Gen. Admission, $30; Premium Seating, $50. Please contact Burt for tickets. Cash donations are also joyfully accepted.
