Mid-Week Lenten Series:
Our series this year is “The Trials of Jesus: Voices of the Prosecution.” Like a courtroom drama, a series of witnesses comes forward to give testimony about their experiences with the accused—Jesus Christ. Through their accounts we come to know the truth that Jesus came to take our place in the defendant’s chair. Soup suppers start Wednesday evenings at 6:00 p.m., followed by an open hymn-sing at 7:15 and worship at 7:30.
Feb. 29th: “Judas” Holy Cross, Clarence
Mar. 7th: “Annas” Pilgrim, Kenmore
Mar. 14th: “Caiaphas” Salem, Buffalo

He-Brew Invites Their Wives: Postponed due to weather
That’s right! Please get your baby-sitters lined up; you won’t want to miss this night together on "new date to be announced". We will start with food in K-Hall at 7:30 p.m., and then couples will watch a hilarious, yet true 40-minute seminar on how to better understand each gender in marriage! You won’t be bummed when you leave!

Spaghetti Dinner and Talent Show: Youth Group Fundraising Activity
On Friday, March 2nd the youth will be hosting a “Spaghetti Dinner and Talent Show” at Holy Cross. All proceeds will support next summer’s youth gathering in San Antonio, Texas! Pastor Randy will be asking for talent skits: music, vocal, acting, etc. to create the evening’s lineup. In addition, we will be seeking parents and youth to help with the spaghetti dinner’s set up, serving, and clean up. This will be a fun winter’s evening in March!

Bible Quote for the month:

"Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity." (1 TIM 4:12)

Ask yourself :

•Who is Jesus? Everyone who hears the Gospel is forced to make this decision. Was he, (is He),God, prophet, wise-man, teacher, lunatic? Weigh the evidence carefully before you decide. Pray for guidance. Go to church. Keep an open mind and open ears. It is a matter of life and death.

Established 1959 - A member congregation of the Eastern District of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod
