A Meditation for the Third Sunday in Lent

 Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.
[Psalm 51:10]
Gentle Father,
show us our sins as they really are
so that we may truly renounce them
and know the depth and richness of your mercy.
-from A New Zealand Prayer Book

Jesus Weeps
Big Idea: Jesus feels compassion for us when we’re sad, so we can cry out to Him.
Bible Story: John 11:1-44
Key Verse: Psalm 42:3-4
Did you know that Jesus wept when His friend Lazarus died?! It’s true! Even though Jesus knew He was going to raise Lazarus from the dead! Jesus is SO compassionate and is sad when we’re sad, so we can come to Him for comfort! 


On the Sundays and Wednesdays during March we will include prayers in observance of Women's History Month.

Heifer International:  For a calendar of giving, click here. 
We've mentioned baby chicks and their benefits as one of the animals that Heifer provides to people to help provide food and income.  Another animal, or rather an insect, they provide are honey bees.  Heifer provides bees, a hive, box and training on raising and keeping bees.  The benefits?  The bees provide honey, wax and pollen which families can sell to provide an income, they can also use the honey and wax themselves.  Additional benefits?  The global honey bee population overall is increased, which helps the environment.  Most importantly honey bees help with pollination, which can boost fruit and vegetable crops, which in turn provides more food for people.  Heifer notes that sometimes it is the smallest gift that makes the largest impact.  Next time you see a honey bee outside, consider all that it can do! Thank you!
