Church Family,
Welcome to the season of Lent. Last night we had our Ash Wednesday Windows/YouTube Live service and I’m so grateful for all those who joined us at the windows or online. If you would like to view the service it is available on our YouTube channel or https://mantuacentercc.org/sermons/joint-ash-wednesday-service-2021-hiram-hilltop-mccc/
At the service we distributed a burlap cross, a purple candle, and a lenten devotional (if desired). If you were unable to be at the Windows, but would like these please contact Rick Painley (via phone or rpainley14@gmail.com). Big THANK YOU to Rick for preparing the burlap crosses as well.
