Join us this Lenten season on Sundays from 6-7:30pm beginning March 5, as we explore why Jesus died on the cross and how it brings us salvation. We will have a light supper before we start the study.

Our study will be based on the book, Savior, by Rev. Magrey deVega. Books will be available for purchase for $13. In Savior: What the Bible Says About the Cross, Magrey deVega faithfully describes the need for reconciliation between humankind and a holy God through Jesus’ death on the cross. The Bible uses many images to understand the meaning of Jesus' death and resurrection, and deVega guides us through these images to achieve a richer understanding of the Christian faith. By exploring the mystery of salvation through the cross, we can deepen our love for God and others and strengthen our commitment to follow Jesus.
