<p>As we begin the <strong>Lenten Season,</strong>&nbsp;we will be forming Lenten&nbsp;Small Groups that will&nbsp;have a definite start date, along with&nbsp;a definite ending date.&nbsp; This allows you to be a part of a group, and to determine if it is a group you would like to join.&nbsp; Some groups&nbsp;decide to stay together, and some end&nbsp;after Lent.&nbsp; This year the groups will meet between February 25 and&nbsp;April 15 for <strong>fellowship, prayer and discussion based on the weekend&#8217;s sermons</strong>.</p>
<p>The <strong>Lent Small Group Launch</strong>&nbsp;is <strong>Sunday,</strong> <strong>February 19 </strong>at <strong>12:30</strong>, right after the 11am service in <strong>Room&nbsp;230</strong> (Children&rsquo;s Ministry Wing).&nbsp; Lunch is provided and children are welcome.&nbsp; We hope you can join us.</p>

<p>Alpha is for anyone who wants to explore the meaning of life in a relaxed, friendly setting. The Alpha course meets weekly for 10 weeks.&nbsp;&nbsp;At each session, people enjoy a great meal, laugh and learn in a fun and friendly atmosphere where no question about life or God is seen as too simple or too hostile&hellip;questions like&mdash;<strong>Is there a God</strong>? <strong>Why am I here</strong>? <strong>Where did I come from</strong>? <strong>Where am I going</strong>?</p>
<p>Come,&nbsp;investigate questions about the existence of God, the purpose of life, the afterlife, the claims of Jesus and more. Many guests have never been to church, others may have attended church occasionally but feel they have never really understood the basics of the Christian faith.</p>
<p>Everyone is welcome.&nbsp; It is free and childcare is available with online registration. <br /><strong><a href="https://integration.fellowshipone.com/integration/login.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2fintegration%2fFormBuilder%2fFormBuilder.aspx%3ffCode%3d%2b9IKyfpHZRrKihno5p0OfQ%3d%3d%26cCode%3djBTe6brCRRBBFhlgc5RfTg%3d%3d&amp;fCode=+9IKyfpHZRrKihno5p0OfQ==&amp;cCode=jBTe6brCRRBBFhlgc5RfTg==" target="_blank">CLICK HERE TO REGISTER</a></strong></p>
