​Adult Lenten Bible Study: For Adults a Lenten Bible Study led by both Lisa and Brandon will begin February 26 and continue weekly until April 2. More opportunities for adults and children are to come in 2023—if you would like to help plan some of these opportunities you are encouraged to talk to Debbi Freer, the Christian Education team chairman.

Children’s Church: Children preschool and older are invited following the children’s message to gather for a lesson and light snack before returning for the end of worship. This program shares lessons of faith with our young children while enabling parents a chance to listen without distraction. Volunteers are needed for Children’s Church—the lessons and materials you need are provided so it’s pretty easy. Contact me if you are willing to help with this important program.​

Worship Committee Still Needs You!
During the first two weeks of MAX, we explored the many aspects of worship which resulted in offers of help from some of our members to serve in various roles for worship.  But we still need help as we get back into full swing of in person worship services!  If you or your young people are interested in serving as ushers, liturgists, acolytes, or on chancel guild, please contact Beth Morgan at 919-356-6098  or Bethmorgan1808@gmail.com. None of these roles are difficult and the worship committee will happily train you. If you have been serving, thank you and please continue to check the Sign Up Genius links below and please, continue to sign up to help serve.
