LENT SEASON 2023
Starting Ash Wednesday, February 22-April 2, 2023, we are participating in a Corporate Fast.
The objective of the fast is to:
-
Pray daily for the direction of the local and universal church.
-
Focus on hearing God more, however you personally hear God (audibly and spiritually) for guidance.
-
Discern if God is desiring you to do a new thing with your Spiritual gift(s).
Be spiritually led what you fast from (food, certain foods or beverages, favorite TV shows, social media, etc.)
Daily Scriptures and devotions are available via the Pamphlet,
"The Sanctuary for Lent" 2023.
Email the church admin via the email address in the Contact Us page for more info regarding the pamphlet.

MISSION TO HELP CURE CANCER
FLOWER POWER FUNDRAISING! Two-time cancer survivor Jessie Johnson not only helps “Hope Bloom” through her prolific Daffodil Days sales, but this #ACS volunteer’s nonstop positive attitude is inspiring. “Fantastic, amazing,” is her consistent answer if you ask how she’s doing. “I do anything I can to promote the American Cancer Society mission,” says Jessie who credits her “three high-level daffodil clientele,” Chi Eta Phi Sorority, Inc., Gamma Chapter; Provident Helene Fuld Nursing Alumni, and her church St. Luke United Methodist in Sykesville, which decorated its altar with daffodils purchased by congregants. If Jessie’s drive to sell daffodils inspires you too, please order by emailing robyn.caitlin@cancer.org.
Jessie, who is both a colon cancer and breast cancer survivor, also organizes Hope Lodge Baltimore food donations through her church and alumni association, was a long-time Road to Recovery driver and Relayer, and volunteered at our Baltimore office. Thank you, Jessie, for all you do to help ACS end cancer as we know it for everyone! Photo, l to r: Jessie Johnson and Marguerite McClammy at Hope Lodge.
