Third Sunday in Lent

John 4:5–42 

Guest Preacher: Adlai Amor

On this Third Sunday in Lent, we turn to John 4:5–42 and find Jesus waiting at a well in Samaria, offering a bold invitation to a woman seeking more than just water: "Drink."

Leave what has left you parched.

Trust the Grace that knows your whole story.

This Lenten season reminds us that faith is not a private ritual but a transformative encounter. Stepping past social barriers, personal shame, and old defenses to receive the "living water" that truly satisfies. The woman at the well shows us that when we stop hiding and start receiving, our own thirst is quenched, and we become a spring for others.

Join us for in person worship at 10:00 am

Volunteer Opportunities

Worship leadership isn’t about perfection or performance. It’s about participation. It’s about saying, “Here I am, God—use me.” When you read scripture, light a candle, serve as liturgist, extend a warm welcome as greeter, or assist in worship, you help transform worship from something we watch into something we share.

This is your invitation to step forward—not because we are desperate, but because you matter. Your presence matters. Your gifts matter. And our worship is richer when you are part of it.
