Dear Folks,
We are on the brink of the Lenten
season, a time for reflection, repentance, and renewal. May
we make the most of it.
The first meeting of Quiet Hour
has been changed from March 1 to March 8. Please note the
change.
I will be in the office tomorrow
morning from 9 A.M. to noon, then by arrangement the rest of the
day if anyone would like to stop by for ashes.
The Ash Wednesday Service will be
held at the Huntington United Methodist Church at 7 P.M.
tomorrow. I will be preaching on Psalm 51.
This Sunday is the First Sunday
in Lent. We will be celebrating Holy Communion. I will
begin a Lenten Sermon Series on the Lord's Prayer. The
scripture for all six weeks will be Matthew 6:9-13. This
week, the sermon is on Matthew 6:9.
The deadline for Membership Dues,
$12 per member for 2017, is tomorrow. If you have not already
done so, you may place your dues contribution in the offering plate
or by on-line giving. Visit huntingtonucc.org or contact the church office
for more information.
Tickets for the Corned Beef and
Cabbage Supper will be sold this Sunday following the
service. The supper is on March 12 at 5:30. Adults are
$13, children are $8.
The 28th Annual
Bowl-2-Benefit The Umbrella Center for Domestic Violence Services
will be held on Saturday, March 11th at AMF
Milford Lanes. Team HCCUCC is bowling in the 2 P.M.
slot. If anyone is interested in bowling, please see me or
Judy Tucker. Packets are available at church. You can
also join our team and fund raise online:

Or, you can also visit this site
and make a donation. We will be taking an offering following
worship this Sunday.
Let us pray. O God, may the
coming 40 days of Lent not just be another set of days just to
muddle through. Help us to truly grow closer to you and to
one other by listening to your Spirit speaking to our hearts.
Amen.
In Christ's love,
Rev. Lucille
