Design Outreach 5th Sunday

Wednesday, 13 March 2024 by Amanda Ferguson

Lent/Easter Mission Offering

Design Outreach
Image

March 31, Easter Sunday, is also a 5th Sunday. This year’s mission offering for Lent/Easter and the 5th Sunday in March is the fundraising campaign with Design Outreach to provide a LifePump for Mwalupanga, Malawi. Mwalupanga is a community of 1,750 people in northern Malawi along the border with Tanzania. Currently, their water source is the Songwe River, where they collect water for drinking, cooking and bathing. The task of gathering water from the river is both time-consuming and arduous. As the river is contaminated with bacteria that carry waterborne diseases, the water being collected is not safe to drink. During the dry season, even their contaminated river water becomes scarce. The people of Mwalupanga need safe, reliable, accessible water. They need a LifePump. 

What is the LifePump difference??? LifePump is . . .

  • Long-Lasting: Designed to last for 30 years or more with minimal maintenance, LifePump provides clean water reliably without fear of breakdown
  • Durable: Made of stainless-steel parts, LifePump can withstand the harshest conditions
  • Deep-Reaching: LifePump goes 3 times deeper than standard hand pumps, accessing water from aquifers in some of the driest regions of the world
  • Ergonomic: With its rotary motion, LifePump was designed so that all users – everyone from children to the elderly – can easily access even the deepest water
  • Life-Changing: By providing safe water on even the driest days without fail, LifePump gives people the confidence and resources they need to better their lives, their families, and their communities

Design Outreach (DO) is a Christian humanitarian engineering nonprofit organization seeking to alleviate global poverty by creating life-sustaining technology. When DO provides a LifePump to a community, they also partner with local churches, pastors and Gospel-focused organizations to share the hope of Living Water through Jesus Christ. Visit DO’s website for more information.

To date, over $12,800 has been collected toward the $17,000 goal. Gifts to the Mwalupanga LifePump can be made using the Easter giving envelopes in the Palm Sunday and Easter Sunday worship folders, indicating “LifePump” on your check or regular giving envelope or via the online giving portal (MISSION Fund with LifePump “Note”). 

Also, to all who are collecting coins for the LifePump using the Coins for Lent Giving Calendar – Thank you!!!

Your generous support is greatly appreciated!

Making Sense of the Bible

Wednesday, 13 March 2024 by Amanda Ferguson

“Making Sense of the Bible”

 We will be offering “Making Sense of the Bible,” our basic Bible study, again in April.  Familiar United Methodist pastor and author, Adam Hamilton, has written both a scholarly and a readable introduction to the Bible.  In this six-week study he describes “the Old Testament in 15 minutes” and “the New Testament in 15 minutes.”  He discusses what the Bible “is” and “is not.”  He reminds us who wrote the Bible and how the Bible came to be.  He leads us in how to read and interpret the Bible.  Pastor Bill Kaster will lead this course.  Our class will meet on Monday nights at 6:30-8:00 beginning April 8.  Please register for “Making Sense of the Bible” at the church office and purchase your book.

The Beatitudes Study Walk

Thursday, 15 February 2024 by Amanda Ferguson

The Beatitudes- we have all heard them many times. Jesus originally spoke these words to His disciples. What meaning do they have to us today as His disciples? This study is in workbook format and was written by Chaplain Steve Peterson at Snow Mountain Ranch, YMCA of the Rockies. First Church received permission to do it this Lent after Diane Quance went on a pastor’s retreat there and walked the Beatitudes Trail. Come along for the journey as the Beatitudes come alive in our daily life.

Wednesdays now until March 27th!

In-Person option Wednesday afternoon 1:30 p.m. – 2:30 p.m. in person in the church Parlor

Zoom option on Wednesday evening from 6:45 p.m. – 8:15 p.m. :

Beatitudes Lenten Series

Saturday, 10 February 2024 by Amanda Ferguson

Join us this Lenten Season as we learn about the Beatitudes from the book of Matthew. The Beatitudes are known as the teaching of Jesus summarized into eight distinct points.

“Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are they who mourn,
for they shall be comforted.

Blessed are the meek,
for they shall inherit the earth.

Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they shall be satisfied.

Blessed are the merciful,
for they shall obtain mercy.

Blessed are the pure of heart,
for they shall see God.

Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they shall be called children of God.

Blessed are they who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”

Matthew 5:3-10

Our series starts Sunday, February 18th!
