40 Day Lenten Renewal

God is on the move at Christ Lutheran.  Do you feel it?  Attendance is growing, giving is generous, outreach is expanding, lives are transformed and the new building is coming.  We can feel God’s spirit all around us.

God is preparing us so that we can make an even greater impact in our community and throughout the world.  We want to make sure that we are ready in our body, mind and spirit.

Through this construction period, we are calling for a congregational preparedness for whatever plans God has for us.  We are starting off with focus on the temple God gave each one of us, our bodies.

Lent 2012  -  BODY

“Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit?” (1 Cor. 6:19)

Through caring for our bodies as the temple of the Holy Spirit, we want to be prepared for this new
temple for the worship of God. This 40 day regiment will include diet, exercise, and cleansing so that with caring for our bodies we can be ready for God’s work with greater energy, increased health and clearer sense of purpose.

Please join us for the kick-off event of our 40 Day Renewal on Sunday, February 19th at 12:30-2:00pm in the Forum.  There will be various stations following a brief presentation from our leaders, including:

    -  The body as the temple of the Holy Spirit
