What is Happening This Week

2/27 – 3/4/18

Dear Church,

We will have two opportunities for people to come together to discuss the book Falling Upward and what ministry for those in the second half of life (40 and up) could look like. The first meeting will be Thursday March 1 at the home of Jim and Karen Guest (2408 Georgetown Dr., Carrollton) and the second will be Thursday March 22 at the parsonage (1021 E. Seminole Trail, Carrollton). Please contact Rev. Bill Mauldin for more information. Bill has a few copies of the book if you would like to buy one ($20). [email protected]

We will have another free workshop on the Enneagram on Sunday, March 4, from 1-3 pm in the Covenant Center. Rev. Bill Mauldin will begin guiding you to understanding some of the nuances beyond just knowing your number. He will share with you information about the arrows that form the Enneagram design, wings, and more. This workshop will be 1pm-3pm. please contact [email protected]

Blessings,

Pastor Carol
