Unique Service Opportunity:
A local band “THE SENIOR MOMENTS” is looking for some help!
The band performs on a volunteer basis for various Sun City organizations and at retirement homes and similar venues, presenting a one-hour variety show. The sound and related equipment (mic stands, speakers, PA, etc) has become burdensome to lift and move. They are looking for help loading and unloading their equipment for “gigs.” Benefits to student "roadies" include helping to provide free entertainment to other seniors as well as being involved in producing and presenting events. (These are eligible for Community Crusade service hours, too.) Volunteers will be provided a modest tip to cover gas money. The Show dates and times are ongoing with the first show scheduled for March 14, 2020. They are hoping to have a pool of individuals from which to contact as events are scheduled. Please contact Stephen Yohay by cell: 703.407.3003 or by email: scyohay@gmail.com if you are interested.

DEVOTIONAL
Today’s Reading: 2 Corinthians 6:1-10
Daily Lectionary: Genesis 7:11-8:12; Mark 3:20-35
For he says, “At the right time I listened to you and in the day of salvation I helped you.” Behold now is the right time. Behold today is the day of salvation. (2 Corinthians 6:2)
Merry Lent! In the Name + of Jesus. Amen. Calvary wasn’t an accident. It wasn’t a knee-jerk reaction to what happened with Adam and the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. God wasn’t the Joker, making stuff up as He went along.
God planned to send His Son to save you. He always had planned it. It happened before you believed. He set it in motion before you were born. Even before there was a world, God wanted to save you in Jesus on the day of salvation, Good Friday.
“In Christ” is the key. This isn’t a divine lottery where God randomly chooses who goes up and who goes down. God wanted to save you. He had you in mind while He was creating the world. That’s why He sent His Son! He sent His Son so that you would be saved. And He didn’t just want to save you, He want to save the whole world.
Is it God’s fault that people go to hell, since He chooses who goes to heaven? No, God doesn’t force you to believe. God chose you “in Christ.” He chose you in Calvary and Easter. He chose you in water and the Word! He sent His Son to save the world. Some people prefer to stay in their sins. It’s our home base, our happy place, our comfort blanket. He won’t force anyone to believe what He did for all.
You believe because Jesus came and suffered and died for your sins and the sins of the world. Your faith and your life are a gift from Him. What Gospel! You didn’t deserve it. You didn’t earn it! You ask yourself every day, “Why me?” The answer: by grace alone in Jesus Christ.
Predestination isn’t a doctrine that is meant to cause you to ponder whether you are in or out of God’s love. You aren’t ever given to look inside yourself to see whether God loves you or not. The only answer inside you is death. The teaching that God chose us before the creation of the world to be saved in Christ is for the comfort of His people.
Today your Lord has saved you in water, Word, and with His Body and Blood. Your faith is not an accident. He planned it. He gave it to you. God had you in mind when He was making the universe. All of it was in Christ and everything was for your comfort, that you would have a merry Lent! Merry Lent! In the Name + of Jesus. Amen. –Rev. George Borghardt
