It’s time to turn your clocks ahead one hour this Sunday at 2am for Daylight Saving Time. If you forget, you might be late for church!
Last weekend, sadly, some people were turned away from the 11am service because our parking lot was too full. Don’t forget we do have two free shuttles running continuously on Sundays from Westerville Central High School to the entrance of Heritage from 8am-1pm. There’s also plenty of room at either the 5pm or 7pm Saturday night services!

As we continue with our theme of The Divine Conversation, we will hear, read, study and meditate on the stories of many who responded to God’s call. Through these stories, it is our hope that we will relate and hear our own story.
The Lenten Devotionals will guide us on a personal, daily journey as we study these passages and take the opportunity to discuss with others in our small groups. Available for free at the Lent table in the atrium.
The Lenten weekend teaching series, Come With Me, will expose us to stories from the past and we will hear present-day testimonies as well.

One of the most tangible signs of a healthy church is when the lay ministry is vibrant! At Heritage we have been blessed with hundreds of people serving this year in literally thousands of different capacities.
To honor your service this year, we are hosting our third annual Servant Appreciation Night on Sunday, March 7, 5:30-8:30pm at the Westerville Community Center, 350 N. Cleveland Avenue. ]]>
On February 28 at 5pm, the first dia•spora young adult gathering will take place.
This is an opportunity for young adults and young families to come together and worship God. We will seek to hear from God in His word, respond to God in song, prayer and commitment, and we will share in the Lord’s Supper together.

Join us for the quarterly Discovering Heritage Luncheon Sunday, February 21, right after the 11am service, Room 230 in the Children’s Wing. Whether you are new to Heritage, or still feel new, the “DHL” is a great chance to meet the staff and other newcomers, hear about the history and values of Heritage from Lead Pastor Jim Zippay, and ask the questions about Heritage doctrine and practices that are important to you. Past attenders have repeatedly indicated that their time has been well spent, and has been especially valuable in helping them decide if Heritage is indeed the place they are supposed to make their church home.
Lunch is provided, as is children’s programming for elementary age and below. Please click here to register online* or call Holly Fissel at 898-9412, ext 230.
* If you do not already have a weblink account, you will be asked to create one for future web registrations. You can use your email address as your user name.

The current series in our year-long emphasis on The Divine Conversation takes us to the Book of 2 Timothy for six weekends beginning January 2. As we look at the Apostle Paul’s second letter to Timothy written nearly 2000 years ago, we’ll be encouraged and challenged to Carry on the Gospel Life today.
Jan 2/3: Pick up the Torch (Jim Zippay)
Jan 9/10: Be Prepared to Get Burned (Jim Zippay)
Jan 16/17: Remember it’s a Relay (Jim Zippay) - Communion
Jan 23/24: Cutting a Straight Path for the Gospel (Andy Sieberhagen)
Jan 30/31: Going Against the Current (Jim Zippay)
Feb 6/7: Say It So They Can Hear It (Jim Zippay) - Baptisms
This year our Lent theme is entitled Come With Me. Each week we will look at someone who decided to follow Jesus…someone who came to faith through a Divine Conversation. It’s our hope that over this 6-week journey, we’ll be able to relate to them by hearing our own story. Take a look at the people and passages below and if your story is similar, consider sharing it with the rest of us.
Feb 20/21: Zacchaeus - Luke 19 (possessions to surrender)
Feb 27/28: The Blind Man - John 9 (despair to rejoicing)
Mar 6/7: Peter - Luke 5 (unlikely to chosen)
Mar 13/14: The Woman at the Well - John 4 (regret to forgiveness)
Mar 20/21: Caiaphas- John 18 (self-promoter to Christ promoted)
Mar 27/28: Simon of Cyrene - Luke 23 (indifferent to involved)
If you feel your testimony might fit, please write up a few paragraphs and send it to sharingmystory@heritagecc.org. If your story is used, we will arrange a time to video you sharing your story which will then be shown during the weekend services.
