Looking Ahead to March 5, the First Sunday of Lent

This Sunday we will be celebrating Communion. It will be served "Presbyterian style" instead of our habitual intinction. Of special note, the trays of glasses we are using were passed to us by St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church when that congregation was dissolved.

The Scripture Readings for March 5 are:

• From the Letters of the Early Church: 1 Corinthians 11:23-28
• Responsive Reading: Isaiah 12:1-6 (p. 880 in Voices United)
• From the Gospel: Mark 14:22-25

The Hymns for March 5 are:

• 457 As We Gather at Your Table
• 468 Let Us Talents and Tongues Employ
• 480 Let Us Break Bread Together
• 481 Sent Forth By God's Blessing

For sermon time we will be having a drama written by Rev. barb janes. In this scene Wesley (representing the Methodists) and Knox (representing the Presbyterians) come before a Judge to settle the issue of how the United Church of Canada will celebrate Communion. Thanks to Paula and Elvin for assisting in the drama.

Also this week Elvin will be giving a report from Presbytery. Come and hear about the fun we had last weekend!
