THE POLITICS OF LEADERSHIP Winter Bible Study January 21-March 25
There are two great stories of the bible that lead to Jesus. One is the liberation of the people from slavery under the leadership of Moses. The other is the establishment of a monarchy with the greatest king the people ever had: David. Jesus not only becomes a new and greater Moses leading people into a new kind of freedom. He is also claimed by prophecy as the Messiah-king of the world in the line of the great historic David.
But who was David as the story is told in the bible? Far from being some mythical, magical, superhero, David is depicted as very human and very flawed. How can this man be God’s chosen one? What does this tell us about God and about the call of any one of us as children of God and followers of Jesus?
Join us for a 10 session study and discussion of the biblical books of 1 & 2 Samuel. The journey begins January 21, 7:30pm eastern, in person and online. Notes will be provided weekly and sessions will be recorded for those who cannot be present weekly. Speak to Dr. Harris for any further questions.
NOWRUZ CELEBRATION - Sunday, March 22
Join us after worship on Sunday, March 22 as we celebrate Iranian New Year!
ARMOUR HEIGHTS BOOK CLUB "How to Read a Book" by Monica Wood- Tuesday, March 24 | 7:30pm Online via Zoom
Our Reasons meet us in the morning and whisper to us at night. Mine is an innocent, unsuspecting, eternally sixty-one-year-old woman named Lorraine Daigle…
Violet Powell, a twenty-two-year-old from rural Abbott Falls, Maine, is being released from prison after serving twenty-two months for a drunk-driving crash that killed a local kindergarten teacher.
Harriet Larson, a retired English teacher who runs the prison book club, is facing the unsettling prospect of an empty nest.
Frank Daigle, a retired machinist, hasn’t yet come to grips with the complications of his marriage to the woman Violet killed.
When the three encounter each other one morning in a bookstore in Portland—Violet to buy the novel she was reading in the prison book club before her release, Harriet to choose the next title for the women who remain, and Frank to dispatch his duties as the store handyman—their lives begin to intersect in transformative ways.
How to Read a Book is an unsparingly honest and profoundly hopeful story about letting go of guilt, seizing second chances, and the power of books to change our lives. With the heart, wit, grace, and depth of understanding that has characterized her work, Monica Wood illuminates the decisions that define a life and the kindnesses that make life worth living.
Whether you will have read the book or not, join us for the discussion Tuesday, March 24 at 7:30pm online via zoom. If you need assistance getting a copy of the book, speak to Erin Stone.
PALM CROSS MAKING EVENT - Saturday, March 28 at 1pm
Join us on Saturday, March 28 at 1pm to help fold palm fronds into crosses. There will be a few experienced folders if you need a lesson or a refresher. All ages are welcome.
MAUNDY THURSDAY SERVICE - Thursday, April 2 at 7:30pm
Maundy Thursday is the day when we are reminded of the new covenant that Jesus gave to the disciples and the night when the Lord's Supper was first shared. It is also the night that leads us towards the darkest day of Holy Week -- Good Friday.
As part of our Maundy Thursday service, we will share in the sacrament of Holy Communion together. All are welcome to this sacred time of worship and reflection as we journey towards the cross. Join us in person or online.
GOOD FRIDAY SERVICE - Friday, April 3 at 10:30am
Good Friday is the climax of the gospel drama. Easter Sunday is meaningless without reference and appreciation for the message of Good Friday.
Worship with us this as we meditate on The Seven Last Words of Jesus from the Cross. Online and in person.

Milk Bags Into Mats & Egg Cartons for the Food Bank!
We have just received an update from Gillian MacCausland that in 2023 we have collected 592! Each mat for an adult takes 500-700 bags. CLICK HERE or the button below to learn more about the program. If any youth or other participants might be interested in getting involved by sorting or counting bags, let us know!
We also collected 459 egg cartons in 2023! Visits to the food bank that we are sending the egg cartons to have gone from 4,000 families each month at the first part of the year, to 7,500 this summer. We also continue to collect bread tags. Thank you for keeping the food bank in good supply! Keep it up!
If you are also able to supply diapers, baby formula, feminine hygiene products, general personal care items (soaps, toothpastes, shampoos etc.) or any items that can take a chunk out of a limited budget, they would be gratefully received as the cost for these items continues to rise. If you have any questions, speak to Erin or Gillian.
Many thanks again to Gillian MacCausland for piloting this project that serves our community and our planet!
