ANNOUNCEMENTS
Fourth Sunday in Lent
We welcome you to worship this morning. May God continue to bless us here at Limehouse.

HEALING TREE – Over the season of Lent this year, we will be hanging "Moments of Healing" on the tree.  Green leaves will be available for those who want to write down something healing that they did this week - called an old friend, re-established a broken relationship, forgave an old hurt, etc.  The tree is "dead" - the green leaves will bring it to new "life" one bud at a time!  These are our prayers for healing in our world as a whole.
