Mendota Church Women United Lenten services to begin March 4

Posted

MENDOTA – All are invited to join in this year's Wednesday morning Lenten services beginning on Wednesday, March 4, sponsored by the Mendota Church Women United, an ecumenical group representing a number of local churches.

This ecumenical series of services will be held for five Wednesdays in Lent, beginning at 9:30 a.m. at Zion United Methodist Church.

This year’s program continues the study from “Twelve More Women of the Bible,” based on teachings from Karen Ehman, Bianca Juarez Olthoff, Lisa Halper, Chrystal Evans, Margaret Feinberg, and Courtney Joseph.

A time of worship, video presentation and small group discussion will be held each week.

Though this study, some of today’s best-loved authors look at the spiritual lessons learned from women in the Bible and what they mean for you today. You will look at these women’s successes and failures, see how they drew near to God in the midst of trials, and learn how they overcame rejection and disappointment. Their stories will inspire you to persevere through difficult times and find joy in the hope that Jesus has provided.

Refreshments will be served in the fellowship hall after the service.

Upcoming services:

March 4 – Esther: Letting God be in Control, hosted by Zion United Methodist Church

March 11 – Priscilla: Living a Life of Blessed Ordinary, hosted by Holy Cross Church

March 18 – Elizabeth: Waiting Game, hosted by First United Methodist Church

March 25 – Martha and Mary: Finding Life in Death, hosted by St. John's Lutheran Church

April 1 – Anna: How to Live a Life Devoted to God, hosted by First Presbyterian Church

All services are held at Zion United Methodist Church, 808 Jefferson St., Mendota. The church is accessible.
