This week's Bible Study will be Friday, March 22nd at 4:00 pm in a Parish Hall meeting room.

Thereafter, we will meet on Wednesdays at 4 pm (if this time works out for everyone), same place. I will have the schedule posted in the next few days.

Bible Study for Lent is based on the book by New York Times Bestselling Author, Pastor Jentezen Franklin, "Restart Your Heart: 21 Encouraging Devotions So You Can Love Like You've Never Been Hurt."

Discover the power of an open heart. You may feel that painful events and circumstances have caused your heart to flatline. You've been looking for a chance to change. You know something needs to be done. Hear God saying to you, "It's time." Give Him permission to begin a work of healing within you. It's time to restart your heart.

In this Lenten season, let's walk alongside one another into a new vision of reconciliation, healing and breakthrough. Together we can learn how to leave behind hurt and bitterness, with God's help, and instead choose love and forgiveness, to release unfathomable freedom and joy in Christ!

See me for the book we'll use. Everyone is welcome to join us!

Peace,
Susan Ohanneson
