On The Table

Hey, Church--

First of all, let me remind you of the tragic news that we will lose an hour between Saturday and Sunday. Spring forward, change your clock, and kick yourself out of bed, and all of that.

Motivation, is that what you need? A reason, perchance, to bid your pillow adieu and go to Jammin' Java on Sunday morning? Well, we've got three reasons, and they're really good ones:

1. The Cobalt Season will be joining us all the way from California, playing some of their great folk/alt/rock tunes and helping us to see our world a little more clearly.

2. We're continuing our re:Lent series, letting Jesus deconstruct us through his parables. This week, we'll be looking at the stark Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus, and the combination of this counter-cultural teaching with the music of Cobalt Season will be incendiary, indeed.

3. As we continue to forgo our usual lunch comforts during Lent, we'll be having some Stone Soup at Israel's place in Arlington, the famous Culpeper House (2428 S. Culpeper St Arlington, VA 22206 - note that Google Maps is wrong: 25th street doesn't touch Rt. 7; take Chesterfield instead). Please bring something from your refrigerator or cupboard to contribute.

Can't wait,
Mike Stavlund
