Wednesday Evenings at Church

mostly “Curbside” – everything outdoors, masked, and

socially-distanced

led by our Confirmation Students and open to the entire congregation

Wednesday, Feb. 24 ~ Curbside Soup Drive ~ 5:15-6:00 pm

Missing our Soup Suppers?  Let’s honor the tradition by donating cans of soup (or other non-perishable food items) to the Food Shelf.  Drive thru the lower parking lot at church.  Confirmation students will be here to collect donations.

Wednesday, March 3 ~ Pick up a Lent Luminary ~ 5:15-6:00 pm

Confirmation students will be making Candle Luminaries for Lent.  Pick up a luminary outside at church and take it home.  Display this luminary at your house – inside or outside – throughout the weeks of Lent. 

Wed., March 10 ~ Drive Thru Bible Story ~ 5:15-6:00 pm

As we prepare for Holy Week, experience the story of Peter’s Denial in a new way.  Drive thru the parking lot at church, passing groups Confirmation students who will recreate scenes from the story around campfires. 

Wed., March 17 ~ Circle Prayer at 5:30 pm: One Year Later… 

It has been a full year now since we met indoors for in-person worship.  Join us at 5:30 pm; we’ll form a large social-distanced circle in the parking lot, and we’ll say a prayer to mark this anniversary.  (Similar to what we did on Christmas Eve with singing Silent Night.)

Wed., March 24 ~ (It’s Almost Easter) Egg Hunt ~ 5:15-6:00 pm

Confirmation students will hide eggs for younger kids (and the young at heart) to find.  Also, take home Easter Eggs with Bible Verses inside to help you honor and celebrate Holy Week at home. 

Stop by Church anytime between 5:15 and 6:00 pm

There will also be an online worship service following our in-person activities

The Annual Meeting of LCGS was held by Zoom on Thursday, February 11 at 7 pm.
