ANNOUNCEMENTS AND EVENTS
Ash Wednesday Service is this Wednesday at 7 pm. This brief, solemn service will include receiving ashes and Communion.
The Lent Prayer Partner Program begins March 5. Registration deadline is tomorrow. BUMC adults are paired with children and youth to commit to pray for and encourage their partner anonymously through the Lent season. Adults will reveal their identity at a Palm Sunday breakfast. Adults interested in committing, and parents interested in having their children included in this event should sign up on the tear-off strip.
Mosaic: When God Uses All the Pieces is the adult Sunday School Lenten study. All are invited to this 9:15 study in the church library. Examine how God uses the broken pieces of our lives to reframe our purpose, turning our discarded hopes and dreams into something beautiful and useful—a mosaic.
