PASSING OF THE PEACE OF CHRIST CALL TO WORSHIP (from Psalm 30) My God, I cry to you for help, it is you who heals me, Lord. You turned my grief into dancing, stripped me of sorrow an clothed me with joy. So my heart will sing to you, not weep; Lord, my God, I will praise you forever. You have turned our sadness into a joyful dance, You are our Lord, our God. HYMN No. 733 Marching to Zion PSALM PRAYER Almighty God, free us from anxiety over what we cannot control. Restore our deep trust in you so that we can always rejoice and be thankful. Amen.

We lift to you the ministry of scouting. We offer you thanks for camping, to teach us that the world is our great home; for study and work, to build character; for service, to see our responsibility to those in need; for encouragement in genuine patriotism and vital faith. Bless the work of scouting, in this place and around the world, that, through its efforts, the young may, like our Lord, increase in wisdom and in stature, and in favor with you and all people. Amen.

Vacation Bible School A few years ago, Collegiate United Methodist Church was under construction and we invited their children to attend Vacation Bible School here at First UMC. We had such a wonderful time working together that they offered to host our children when we were under construction. This summer, we re taking them up on the offer! Since we don t know what our building will look like this summer, we re heading across town for VBS. As good guests, we ll be having our summer program at the time they usually hold VBS in June. We ll be meeting in the mornings of June Just like always, we ll need lots of adults and youth from this church to lead the program. See you there!

All are on Tuesday evenings, and the time is 6:30-7:30 in the community room at the library. There will be speakers from a variety of areas, all focused on a sense of well-being. In preparation for those presentations, we offer a survey that will help each of us evaluate our own sense of well-being. You may access that online at: For those who do not have internet access, we will have copies of the wellness survey in the narthex and in the office for you to pick up. These surveys will evaluate our physical, social, emotional, spiritual, and intellectual health.

NEEDING HELPERS FOR ASH WEDNESDAY The season of Lent begins on February 22 with an Ash Wednesday worship service at 6:00 p.m. Prior to the evening s worship at 5:10, we will be hosting a soup supper along with our friends from First Christian Disciples of Christ and UCC. We need 4 volunteers to bring a crock pot of soup each (by 5 p.m.) and to stay to help serve it, as well as appearing as our church hosts. One of those soups needs to be a real vegetarian option. We need 4 other volunteers to bring a loaf of fresh bread plus a relish dish. Additionally, we need 4 more volunteers to prepare beverages and to be here to oversee/help with the cleanup. A sign-up for these tasks will be placed on the bulletin board in fellowship hall by the flower chart and utility calendar. If you have questions, contact Pastor Fred. 5
6 The Return of the Prodigal Son a Lenten Study at FUMC In The Return of the Prodigal Son, author Henri Nouwen takes Rembrandt's famous painting of the same name and brings it (and the parable) to life, enabling readers to enter the story and find hope in the love that IS the parable. Beginning Wednesday, March 7 and continuing through Wednesday, April 4 (with no meeting March 21), we'll meet in the Parlor at 10:30 to bring this parable into our hearts. We will plan our time so that you may also attend the Lenten Lunches if you wish. Please register by calling the church office at by March 1. Books are available in the church office for $ Questions?? Contact Mary Dreier at or mary@souloftheprairie.com. Lenten Luncheons! Theme: Seeing God through the Eyes of the Disciples This year s lunches will feature a time of worship in which two of the twelve disciples will make an appearance through a special reading. Here is the schedule-- February 29: Nathanael and Simon the Zealot March 7: James the Younger and Thaddeus March 14: Andrew and Matthew March 21: Judas Iscariot and Philip March 28: Simon Peter and James April 4: John and Thomas At these lunches, we will have time to reflect upon how Christ invites us to: 1) Make disciples of Jesus Christ as we witness by word and deed --Acts 1:8 2) Develop and renew Christian congregations and communities --Luke 10:1-2 3) Alleviate human suffering --Matthew 25:40 4) Seek justice, freedom, and peace --Micah 6:8 Bring a sack lunch with you to the church s fellowship hall every Wednesday at noon in Lent, from February 29 through April 4. We ll provide coffee and water. Be sure to invite a friend to join you. $17, was collected last weekend for the various ministries and missions of our church. Approximately $56,500 each month will meet our primary monthly ministry budget. This week s offering will go towards that monthly total and will help us to continue to transform and change lives. You may further stay informed about our financial stewardship as a church by reading the monthly newsletter. Thank you for your loyal and steadfast contributions to our church s ministries and missions. 6
7 Jesus is NOT looking for fans He s looking for followers. Followers who understand that There is no forgiveness without repentance. There is no salvation without surrender. There is no life without death. There is no believing without following. Twenty times in the New Testament, Jesus Christ issued a compelling and challenging invitation: Follow Me. Jesus is not interested in mere fans. He doesn't want enthusiastic admirers. He wants completely committed followers. NOT A FAN a 6 week DVD Small Group Study will begin on Wednesday, March 21 st at 6:30 p.m. in the Sarah room. Space is limited to 12 participants. Please contact Rich & Cami McColley at or the church office to sign up. YOU can play an important role in our Stephen Ministry Because you may know of a friend, neighbor, co-worker, or relative who is going through a difficult time and who could benefit from the focused care, encouragement, and support of a Stephen Minister. If you know of someone who is hurting, talk with one of our Stephen Leaders: Pastor Deanna Pullen, Carrie Copley, or Cami McColley. They can talk with you about how we can connect the person you know with one of our Stephen Ministers. It's a great way for you to show how much you care! CARE ZONE UPDATE Have you wondered what has happened to the Care Zone effort that was started a few years ago? It was an attempt to divide the church membership into neighborhood groups with designated Care Zone Leaders. Because of the nature of those areas, we have found that it was not always a viable program, so we have discontinued that Care Zone program. However, we are still wanting to work with the whole concept and idea of having neighborhoods defined, so that if a new member wants to get acquainted with someone close by, we can still refer to a map of the neighborhood zones. Our sincere thanks to those who acted and served as Care Zone Leaders. Considerable effort was made to promote and sustain this program, but we hope to now learn from it and grow forward into something else, something new. 7
