PALM SUNDAY, MAUNDY THURSDAY, GOOD FRIDAY
From Pastor Regina:
"Maundy Thursday demonstrates the importance of humility and service by remembering
Jesus washing the feet of his disciples.
What a beautiful evening at Connection UMC eating together, serving communion to one another
and providing space to have our hands or feet washed."
LENT - DRAW CLOSE
From Pastor Darren: "On Sunday, March 9th, we will kick off our Lenten series based on Pastor Stephanie's book Draw Close. Each week of the series we will be trying a different creative practice during worship to help us draw close to God throughout the season of Lent. From origami to songwriting to making sun catchers to drawing and painting plan to join us each week in worship as we explore new ways to draw close to God."
