Dear Friends,
At the link above you will find the bulletin and insert for this Sunday, March 8. You will also find a link with some information about Paul Whitmer, the chaplain at Mitchellville Women 's Prison. He will be bringing the message at both LeRoy and Humeston on March 22. He will bring a unique view on the scriptures for that day. Mark your calendars and invite your friends, family, and neighbors.
God Bless.

"Jesus and Nick at Night"
by Pastor Diane Olson-Schroeder
Genesis 12: 1-4a & John 3: 1- 17
Nicodemus–
successful, respected, wealthy, powerful religious leader–
used darkness to hide his search for an answer to his question.
Why is Jesus doing the things he is doing?
Jesus tells Nicodemus to pay attention, to listen.
Jesus answers in John 3: 14.
John 3: 14
". . . . Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, that everyone who believes may have eternal life in him."
John 3: 16 & 17 (as John explains in his Gospel of John to us and to others)
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to comdemn the world but to save the world through him.
God is not a strict, unforgiving overlord
as seen by the Pharisees and the Law.
God is loving.
God is forgiving.
God welcomes sinners to his kingdom.
THE GOSPEL (the Good News)
IN A NUT SHELL––
John 3: 16
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
IN YOUR HEART,
BELIEVE IT!
WE ARE NOT ALL THE SAME.
BUT, UNITED (FOLLOWING JESUS),
WE ARE THE POWER OF GOD.
Prayer of Dedication:
Faithful God, you call us, as you called Abraham (Genesis 12: 1-4a), to trust in what we cannot see, and to follow where you lead, even when the road is unclear. In the shadows of our questions and the uncertainty of our understanding you meet us with grace, not condemnation. As Nicodemus discovered, your love is not earned but freely given. Help us to share your transforming love with a world still searching in the dark. In the name of your Son, we pray. Amen
