Lenten Devotional Being Prepared

Hi all.
Your help is needed.

Do you ever read these daily devotionals and think, "I've got something to say too?"
Do you ever wonder why Pastor Seth and Pastor Jenn get to have all the fun of writing these messages?
Do you have something to share?

I'm sure that you do, whether you know it or not.

So, we are again this year preparing a Lenten devotional booklet for All Saints written by the people of All Saints.
If you should decide to put your name on the writer's list, you will get:

• an assigned biblical text (usually 6-10 verses)
• a deadline (in mid-January)
  
• instructions and guidance, as much as you'd like.
  

What we'll ask you to do is to read your assigned passage and choose one or two key verses.

 

Write your thoughts about what these passages are saying to you. What do they make you think of? What do you learn about God from them? What do you learn about yourself from them? Use the booklets "Christ in our Home" or the daily email devotionals as inspiration. But make it your own. Share your thoughts with your sisters and brothers.

 

Finally submit the following via email: your key verses, 250-350 word reflection, and how you would like your name to be printed.

These will be printed together in a booklet for our congregation, the booklet will be made into a pdf and put on our congregation's website, and the devotions will be emailed as part of our daily email devotional plan for the season of Lent 2011.

If you would be willing to share your thoughts and to help us create this project, please respond via email to pastorseth@allsaintspalatine.org
