All-Church Lenten Study

 “24 Hours that Changed the World” describes the 24 hours that began with Jesus’ preparations for his Last Supper with his disciples to his crucifixion and death on the cross. This will be our study and worship focus for Lent 2010 at UUMC.  The study by Adam Hamilton will be offered during Lent in three venues here at UUMC.

    • Thursday noon, beginning February 18th.  Led by Jayne Erickson
    • Sunday mornings at 9:15 a.m., beginning February 21
      • T-N-T (20s & 30s)  Beginner’s Bible Study led by Rick Erickson
      • Pathfinder Class for all others.  Led by John Ross Thompson and assisted by Dave Koski and others. 

In addition, our pastors’ sermons during Lent will be based on the themes in the book.  You can use the book and devotional guide even if you cannot attend the classes.

In this seven week study, we’ll join Jesus at the Last Supper and then journey with him to the Garden of Gethsemane, the court of the Sanhedrin, before Pilate, the scourging by the Roman soldiers, and the crucifixion.  We will also join him in his victory over death. Each session will have a video presentation which includes taking us to those locations in modern day Jerusalem. Whether you are long-time Christians or simply curious about the story of Christ's crucifixion, you are invited to join the author in retracing the last 24 hours of Jesus' life.  Therefore, everyone at UUMC is encouraged to purchase Hamilton’s book and 40 day Devotional guide to supplement and enhance your class experience. They will be available beginning February 10th at the church information desk or in your class session.  The hardcover study book and the 40 Days of Reflection devotional book set are discounted at $20 or they can be purchased separately:  study book for $15, and devotional for $10.  All are invited to participate by use of the study book and/or devotional and attending one of the classes.
