The Season of Lent
Small Groups
We want to put together some small groups that can meet in people’s homes, the church or an agreed upon space, to share a scripture, a short devotion, discussion questions as well as check in on one another and a closing prayer. The groups would meet once a week for the 6-weeks of Lent. The scripture, devotion, questions, etc., will be provided and are easily downloaded from a computer link.
We need those who are interested to sign-up by calling the church office, emailing either the church office or Pastor Mark and letting us know of your interest. Our deadline is Friday, February 21st.
If you want to be with certain people (for your comfort level) please let us know that as well and hopefully, you have talked with them first! We will put together the groups and then give you the two options we are going to suggest for your group time. You make the decision on the resource and the time and place for your group.
There are also resources for families, couples, individuals, who feel pressed in by time and other commitments. Let us know what works best for you and we will share a link that you can check out and see if it’s a good fit for you and/or your family unit. If it looks like you want to access it, you can download it from that same link.
If you have questions, reach out to Pastor Mark.
Holy Week: April 13 – April 19
We are still working out what Holy Week will look like here at Olympia First!
Although we will have our annual Maundy Thursday Worship service on April 17th.
We are also looking at doing some kind of shared experience for Good Friday,
with New Life Baptist Church in Lacey. This is a new and exciting development.
Our goal is to have everything worked out as far as a Holy Week schedule, with
details, by the next Windows edition for April. In the meantime, say a prayer or
two for wisdom & planning.
