February – April 2022
QUARTERLY CHURCH COUNCIL COMMITTEE MEETING
The Church Council/Leadership 2022 quarterly meets today.
Meetings are held after the Sunday liturgy. All are welcome to attend and participate. We invite you to stay for the meetings and share your thoughts and ideas or just ask questions.
Please feel free to contact Becky Hamilton if you have any questions. She can be reached at (904)229-9472 or bhamilton@gatepetro.com
We gather every Sunday Liturgy. The word liturgy means “work, or work of the people,” and it is work of the people, not for the people (which is the distinction between liturgy and magic, since magic is directed for some outcome for people). Liturgy is different than a service which often is entertainment at its worst, or passively watching and listening to what is going on at church. Liturgy, rather, is something we do together.

Entering Lent
We enter a period of 40 days to reflect on the great love that God has for each of us and to enter more deeply into that love. Ash Wednesday is the beginning of the Lenten journey. It is a time that points to Spring and New Life through the resurrection. And it is a time to grow in the wisdom of Jesus through prayer, reflection, and practice. We are invited to not just fast, but to also feast on the positive growth opportunities in our life.
Come join us on Wednesday, March 2nd as we open the season of Lent dusting each other in ashes. Let our dust be transformed into love. Invite a friend to our church community gathering.
