Annual Congregational Meeting - Sunday, February 5, 9:45am Fellowship Hall
Light Breakfast will be served!

Join with the whole congregation in Fellowship Hall between worship services on Sunday, February 5. We’ll elect officers (elders and deacons) to serve in the class of 2015, review the 2012 budget adopted by the Session and do some other business, too. We’ll review 2011 at Lewinsville Church and ask, ‘What’s been life giving? What’s been life changing?’ If you were to talk to someone about why you like being part of the Lewinsville faith community, what would you say? The Parish Life and Care Ministry Group will have a light continental breakfast waiting for you and we’ll have a photo montage to reflect on the past year of our life together. Children will have a special Sunday School event. You won’t want to miss this opportunity to learn, to share, and to get to know some other members of our dynamic community of faith.

How Wide is God’s Mercy?

Rob Bell’s recent book “Love Wins” garnered a great deal of attention and engendered considerable controversy among Christians. He provocatively argues that the idea of God condemning non-Christians to eternal punishment is plagued by inconsistencies and is not well-grounded in the Bible.

We will engage in a discussion of such questions as:

• What is at stake in the debate over universal salvation (Bell’s position) over against salvation of only the faithful (the traditional Christian position)?
• How does universalism (the idea that everyone is saved) relate to pluralism (the idea that many religions present a valid path to salvation)?
• If one embraces universalism, is the church then unnecessary? Is there a place for evangelism if one believes in universal salvation?

The Gospel of Mark with Tracy Radosevic, Storyteller - Sunday, April 15

Tracy Radosevic, nationally acclaimed Storyteller, returns to Lewinsville Sunday, April 15 to present The Gospel of Mark. Yep! The whole gospel of Mark! We’ll have a special Sunday morning schedule that day.

We’ll have one worship service at 9:30 am and no Sunday School or Adult Education classes. The regular coffee hour will be held following worship. The presentation of the gospel of Mark is two hours long. We’ll have various liturgical elements before and after, to ensure the full worship experience. “Two hours?! Yikes!” It might seem overwhelming, but it’s not.

Tracy’s performance is very engaging. Listening to the whole gospel in one sitting provides the opportunity to make connections between stories that we might not otherwise make.

Children will be especially enthralled with the storytelling. We encourage you to arrive early, to ensure a seat up front for you and your children. They’ll want to see every move and hear every word!

If you were in worship on December 11, you know how powerfully Tracy communicates the gospel. That’s the day she presented the story of Elizabeth and Zechariah.

Plan to be at Lewinsville on the Sunday after Easter! This would be a wonderful event to bring friends and family to introduce them to Lewinsville.
