Update - April 18

Hi all,

We had a really nice meeting with Ellen and Jen leading last Wednesday. A great discussion about Renewal resulted with lots of attendees sharing. Here are a few notes from the evening:

We looked at Ecclesiastes 3:1-15, and Ephesians 4:21-24
We talked a little about the change in church calendar between lent and easter, moving from a season of solemn contemplation and reflection, to a season of joy, celebration and rebirth.

Then we discussed a few questions:
-Do you go through periods of seriousness verses joyfulness? Or do you tend to be in one frame of mind most of the time?
-What is renewal?
-How do you experience it?

Then we each wrote down a/some "renewal goals" that we thought we could accomplish (individually) in the next month or over a longer period of time.

It was a great evening. If you weren't able to be with us, look over the scriptures and think about the questions for yourself and write down a renewal goal that you feel you can stick to over the next month.

This Wednesday = Renewal: Part 2 with Ellen and Jen.

Be sure to visit the bridge calendar (use the button at the top of the right-hand bar) for all of our upcoming events!

Yours, Rachel
