LENT BOOK STUDY
An Unlikely Lent
​Extraordinary People
of the Easter Story 
by Pastor Rachel Billups
 
Notice the unexpected in Easter. 
​The crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus are at the heart of the story of Easter. But the resurrection was not witnessed in isolation; it unfolded before a crowd. What might the stories of those women and men teach us today? How will they help us step into the story of Easter? Here, we can see what has been overlooked, not just in the grand moments but in the in-between: the silence, the side characters, and the questions. Gain new insight from the crowd on the themes of: -Devotion -Opposition -Freedom -Courage -Companionship -Alliances By seeing the Easter story through their eyes, we may discover that the resurrection is not just a past event, but an invitation into something new, unexpected, and unlikely. Walk through this season with eyes wide open, ready to see where God is moving, even in the margins. Since the cross is not the end of the story, embrace every unlikely moment along the way.

gospel of mark bible study
Thursdays, 7:00 pm via zoom

Mark's Gospel was the first eyewitness account about Jesus, His life and teachings. The author, John Mark, was an associate of Paul and Peter, and extensively interviewed Peter for his observations and perceptions of Jesus.

​This book reveals Jesus and His true identity: the awaited Anointed One, the Chosen One of God, and we discover Jesus is God Himself, son of the Almighty Father. 

Mark pulls no punches about the doubts that even the closest followers of Jesus had. It's an uplifting account for believers who also may be struggling at times with doubt.

Join us as we help the homeless
annual mat making event for the homeless

Streetsboro UMC and the Kent State University Alumni Association join forces each year to provide greater comfort and safety for homeless people living on the streets by making sleeping mats through a process called "plarning," making "plastic yarn" out of grocery bags and then crocheting that "yarn" into these durable, washable mats.
How this helps.
Living and sleeping on the streets can be cold, painful and cause greater health issues for the homeless. These mats provide a sitting and sleeping barrier that is both more comfortable and functional, avoiding exposure issues normally associated with direct contact with the ground or hard surfaces like concrete and asphalt pavement.
Learn how and help us get ready.
The first Monday of each month we gather at the church to both train new volunteers and to create "plarn materials" that can be used to make the mats. Join us the first Monday at 1:00 pm to help us prepare for the event with the KSU Alumni Association.
This year's event will be on Saturday, April 18th from 10:30 am - 1:00 pm.
Join us as we work as a team to make these mats. We'll teach you how and we'll have a fun time working together for an important cause. Last year we had 19 volunteers come together to make an impact. Thanks to all who helped make this a great day for the homeless in our community!

You have certain special gifts from the Holy Spirit.
Every believer is blessed with these gifts when they accept Jesus and become a member of His Kingdom.
The Spiritual Gifts Assessment helps individuals identify their God-given gifts for living faithfully as Christian disciples day by day and find meaningful ways to use their gifts in connection with others through the community of faith. The process helps people understand the nature of spiritual gifts and ways to enhance their gifts’ effectiveness by linking with others.
​As a follower of Jesus, exploring and exercising your spiritual gifting is a vital and exciting part of your spiritual journey.
“There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit distributes them.
​There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord.”
1 Corinthians 12:4 NIV
