15 Bible Passages to Know by Heart
 Here are fifteen short passages worth learning by heart. They don't cover everything important, but they come pretty close. Notice the phrase "learning by heart," not "memorizing." The point isn't just to be able to rattle them off; the point is to know them so intimately that they're written on your heart. It will be worth the effort. See Quinn G. Caldwell's 15 verses.

Ash Wednesday Service
Wednesday, February 22 7:00pm
 We will have an Ash Wednesday Service to begin the Season of Lent, the time leading up to Holy Week and Easter Morning. The Service will be in the Sanctuary beginning at 7:00pm. Lent is traditionally used as a time to improve ourselves; some people give up some habit, others start a new routine, like prayer or joining/starting a small group, and others do random acts of kindness. Ash Wednesday is used as a time to repent and get back into a better relationship with God and Christ. Invite a friend to join you! |
