This year, our Lenten theme is All We Need, which might sound a bit daunting. Our needs can certainly be felt almost everywhere these days. However, rather than focusing solely on our most basic needs such as food, shelter, and water; this year we are considering some of our more tender needs such as beauty, rest, and vulnerability. As we gather each week for worship, we will explore a different need Jesus invites us to embrace alongside our neighbors, prayers, reflections, and spiritual practices. We hope you will join us to discover how God gives All We Need.
Join us for a worship on Sunday, April 6th, at 10:00 AM at Goshen Post E.S. or online via YouTube Live. During the season of Lent, let us return to the God who rescues, receive the gifts of God’s grace, confess the wonder of God’s love, and find the strength to resist temptation at every turn. This Sunday, we will discover that included in All We Need is God’s provision of beauty. All are invited, affirmed, and welcome!

This two-year journey is a period of growth in Christian faith that concludes with a celebration where students will ultimately develop and share their own profession of faith. Our next session will be Sunday, April 27th! If you are interested in your youth participating, please contact Pr. Garrett today.
Current Faith Formation Study
In Witness at the Cross, Amy-Jill Levine shows how the people at the cross each have distinct roles to play. Each person or group presents a unique picture of the death of Jesus, and offers various perspectives, images, and dialogues. During this six-week series, we will reflect upon the various witnesses at the cross, allowing us to experience the cross for ourselves and come away transformed. Our meetings will occur on Mondays, March 10 - April 14, at 7:00 PM at the Quinlivan home.
Our Previous Faith Formation Study
Our weekly Advent video-based study, Heaven and Earth, reminded us that if we are to have a future different from our past, then it must come as a gift, something not of our devising. What we need is a God who refuses to be trapped by history, and who is willing to show up among us and do something with us, here and now. Our next neighborhood study will kick off in March during the season of Lent.
