Lenten Series: “Bread for the
Journey”
This year our Lenten series
is called “Bread for the Journey: A High-Carb, Multi-Sensory Lenten
Worship Series.” Each Wednesday we will explore a different scripture
passage about bread and how that bread still feeds our lives today. And
there’s a good chance you may actually be able to smell and taste the
day’s theme each week. Morning services are followed by a soup lunch,
and evening serves are preceded by a soup supper. All are welcome. We
share Lenten worship with Our Savior’s Lutheran Church, so make sure to
check the worship schedule for worship times and places.

Maple Sugar Fest
Welty Environmental Center
will hold Maple Sugar Fest on Saturday, March 13th,
from 11-2, at Big Hill Park. You can come see how sap is collected and
how the sap is cooked over a wood stove in a really big flat pan to
evaporate the water. (Did you know that it takes 30 -40 gallons of sap
to make just ONE gallon of Maple Syrup?) Take a horse drawn wagon ride
and enjoy the all-you-can eat pancake meal with sausage, applesauce,
coffee, hot chocolate, and of course, REAL maple syrup!
