It is a time to renew our commitment to God, reflect on our lives and respond to Jesus’ call for us to love one another. </span></p> <p class="style19">Our 2010 Lenten series, <span class="style31">Healing a Hurting World</span>, is designed to encourage, challenge and inspire us to reflect on what steps we might take to help those who live in need. We will consider our neighbors who are suffering, locally and globally, and discover how our compassion and motivation can help others overcome the challenges of poverty, hunger and disease. Through prayer, learning and serving together we will renew our commitment to God and those in need. </p> <p class="style19"><strong>February 25:</strong> Introduction: Pray, Learn, and Serve—What are we already doing? What can we do? Led by Fr. Poulson Reed. </p> <p class="style19"><strong>March 4</strong>: The speaker will be Kate Forbes, our own parishioner and active member of the International Red Cross, who will share updates on Haiti and other insights into outreach on a global level. </p> <p class="style19"><strong>March 11</strong>: Lisa Gallagher, Youth Ministry Coordinator will help us delve into how we can heal the world individually and as a community through prayer. </p> <p class="style19"><strong>March 18</strong>: The Rev.

Roger Benson and other ICM volunteers from All Saints’ will show us about this valuable ministry and work with us as we sort and bag our food items to give to ICM!</p> <p class="style19">For Children: New, this year…children will gather for their own Lenten program. After sharing our communal meal, they will head off to various places around the campus. We will have a great time exploring how we can help heal a hurting world. We'll learn, we’ll pray, we’ll play, and we’ll serve together! And of course, the children will be home by bedtime. </p> <p class="style19" style="margin-bottom: 0;"> </p> <p align="center" class="style34" style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;">LOCAL OUTREACH PROJECT: ICM Food and Clothing Bank Food Drive </p> <p class="style19" style="margin-top: 0;">Interfaith Cooperative Ministries is currently serving 60-100 families 6 days a week. Most clients are working poor with low-paying jobs and not enough money to handle all of life’s emergencies; others are disabled and the elderly poor. Children and families comprise over half of all clients at ICM.</p> <p class="style19">Please bring your filled grocery bag (given out at church services) to the west side of the parking lot (by the school entrance) any Sunday in Lent up to and including March 21.</p> <p class="style19" style="margin-bottom: 0;"> </p> <p align="center" class="style34" style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;">GLOBAL OUTREACH PROJECT: Nets for Life </p> <p align="center" class="style34" style="margin-top: 0;">through Episcopal Relief and Development</p> <p class="style19">All Saints’ will send Nets for Life to families in Africa. Insecticide-treated nets are the front line in malaria prevention. The nets are placed where they can surround the beds people sleep in and keep mosquitoes away. The nets cost $12.00 each and are treated with a long-lasting insecticide. </p> <p class="style19">ER-D (Episcopal Relief and Development) has campaign to supply families in Africa with nets. The Nets for Life goal is to raise $50 million in 5 years to help prevent malaria in 5 million people. We can help them reach this goal. </p> <p class="style19">To contribute, please make out a check to All Saints' with "ER-D" or "Nets for Life" on the subject line. Return the check in the offering plate at services or to the Church Office, and we will make one large donation check to send to ER-D.</p> <p class="style19"></p> <p align="left" class="style35"> </p> <p></p> <p> </p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0;"><strong> </strong> </p> </blockquote> </blockquote> </blockquote> </blockquote> <p align="left" class="style3"> </p> <p></p> <p align="center" class="style3 style22"> </p> <p></p> <p> </p></td> </tr> <tr> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="4%"> </td> </tr> </table>
