 BIBLE STUDY SIGN UP

Rev. Jim is leading a seven-week Lenten Bible study, Wednesdays, 12:00-1:30 P.M., beginning February 15, to be repeated on Sundays at 9:30 A.M., beginning February 19. Studying the Borg-Crossan book, The Last Week: A Day-by-Day Account of Jesus's Final Week in Jerusalem, we will primarily use the Gospel of Mark and the scholarship of these two leading Biblical authorities to further understand the historical Jesus and the power of the Easter proclamation.  Please call the church to order your book ($15) by January 30.  Thank you!

CARPENTRY PROJECT IN ZAMBIA

Nat Quesenberry, grandson of the late Neil and Jane Quesenberry, has been in Zambia with Peace Corps for almost two years.  Nat is working with a local farmers' group to get a grant for a carpentry workshop, where people in the village can come and learn basic carpentry to manufacture and sell the furniture they have made.  It will cost about $3,000 to build the workshop and train the farmers.  Nat needs to raise $2,000 of that externally.  The remaining amount consists of local materials, labor, and bricks.  Nat's tour will conclude in April of this year and he hopes to have this done by then.  Donations are tax deductible and may be made online at the address given at the bottom of this page.  Nat was in worship one Sunday in February 2010 where he was blessed before his tour.  Let's continue to hold Nat and all Peace Corps volunteers in prayer.
