Pairings and Paraments, 2/15
Have you ever wondered about the items in the sanctuary such as their purpose? Or how we prepare for a service?
Join the GLC altar care leaders for a fun evening of learning about how we prepare and maintain our church’s worship space, especially the altar, communion vessels, and paraments – but with a twist! We will learn through wine pairings! The pairings will also include various breads, cheeses and fruits. Non-alcoholic beverages will also be available.
This event is part of our new Stewardship efforts to share more about how we can give our time though supporting the altar care team for Sunday service and treasure in your donations to the altar care budget line.
February 15 - 5 p.m. @ Georgetown Lutheran Church. Suggested donation of $25. All donations will go towards supporting the work of altar care. If you are interested in helping support the event through additional in-kind donations (e.g. food/wine), please contact Cassandra Kuball.
Thursday Zoom Bible Study
Pastor Brett invites all to weekly Bible study on Zoom, Thursdays, 7:30-8:30pm. Zoom link HERE. No experience or preparation necessary - we simply read the bible, share questions, and discuss. Pastor Brett would be interested to hear what topic or part of the Bible you're interested in reading as we make plans for the year ahead.
Pub Theology, 2/25
Come to Georgetown Pub Theology, an open gathering at a neighborhood watering hole to discuss big topics and questions. Join us Wednesday, Feb 25 @ 6:00pm, at Mr. Smith’s, 3205 Water St, topic: TBD If you have topic suggestions, or have questions, talk with Adam Orshefsky.
Book study: Jesus and Nonviolence
This Lent (and maybe into Easter), Pastor invites all to join in a community read: Jesus and Nonviolence: A Third Way, by Walter Wink. This deep and easy read (100 little pages) will make you think and want to discuss it with others. Wink engages Jesus' words, wider scriptures, Christian history, and other peace movements, to weave a sharp perspective to consider as a dialogue partner in these fractured times in our world. This read will enrich your faith and help you discern your own response to follow the way of Jesus in our present day and consider each of our own callings to be peacemakers. Books available to pick up at GLC - $15 donation welcomed (add it to your regular offering). Discussion dates TBA - zoom and in-person "book club" style gatherings being scheduled - take Pastor's quick poll in our weekly email to indicate your interest and when you'd like to attend.
