National Day of Prayer

Apr 29, 2007   //   by rich   //   Events  //  Comments Off on National Day of Prayer

Thursday, May 3, 2007
12:15 – 12:45 p.m.
inside City Hall, 166 Lincolnway, Valparaiso

The National Day of Prayer is an opportunity for all of us to pause and ask God to guide, strengthen, and bless our nation and those who lead it at every level. The Valparaiso Christian Ministerial Association (of which Pastor Rich is a part) is sponsoring a lunch hour prayer time in the council chambers at City Hall. We’re keeping it brief so you can participate and still be back to work before your lunch hour ends. We would love to have you join us.

Mother’s Day

May 13 is Mother's Day!

We hope you’ll join us on Mother’s Day as we celebrate God’s goodness to each one of us. Kids will be making a special presentation in each service, in addition to their usual fun activities… which means Mom can relax and enjoy the service, not struggle to keep junior entertained. And on Friday, May 18, a special Ladies’ Night Out will allow her to unwind after a hectic weekend of being treated like a queen. (You are going to treat her like a queen, right?)

And don’t worry, Dads. This isn’t the kind of church that gets all girly and pink on Mother’s Day. Feel free to bring your testosterone with you to church.

Living Hope meets at the Aberdeen Manor banquet hall on St. Rd. 2, about 2 miles south of Hwy 30, right next to the Family Express. (That building that’s going up on the corner where you turn right? That’s the Aberdeen Manor’s new wedding chapel. No, we don’t plan to meet in it. Too traditional. :))

April 8 is Easter Sunday! - original photo by Geri-Jean Blanchard

If it’s been a while since you’ve been to church, Easter Sunday is a great time to give it another go! We’d love to have you drop in at Living Hope for a relaxed-but-engaging Easter worship service, including fun stuff for your kids and the usual complimentary breakfast table. You don’t even have to dress up (unless you feel like it).

We meet at the Aberdeen Manor banquet hall on St. Rd. 2, about 2 miles south of Hwy 30, right next to the Family Express. (That building that’s going up on the corner where you turn right? That’s the Aberdeen Manor’s new wedding chapel. No, we don’t plan to meet in it. Too traditional. :))

Special bonus: On Easter Sunday, we’re beginning a 40-day journey of listening our way through the entire New Testament in just 28 minutes a day. To make it easy, we’re giving everyone a free MP3 CD of the New Testament in audio drama format. It’s yours to keep whether you join us on the 40-day journey or not. Happy Easter!
