The deadline has been extended for contributions to this year's Lenten Devotional Guide. Kindly put together one or more devotional pieces -- they needn't be long -- and drop them in Shereen Silwowski's mail folder in the church hallway by the end of the week.
This year's theme is your personal portrait of Jesus. Write a few lines on how you see him and why, using a Bible verse for context. You may focus on Jesus' role as a teacher, a healer, the Son of God, the King of Kings, your personal savior, the Messiah, or humble servant, God made Man, the Risen Christ, or something else?
If you need help picking a verse, the Bible Bulletin Board offers this list of Bible verses dealing with Jesus. If you need other help with your reflection, contact Shereen or Elizabeth, or contact Reverend Loril through the church office at 732-566-2663.
Please use the following basic format for your devotional piece:
Luke 18:16 "Then Jesus called for the children and ... Let the children come to me. For the kingdom of God belongs to such as these."
I see myself sitting at the feet of Jesus or gathered in his arms, feeling the love and devotion of a father towards his child. This verse inspires in me a feeling of reciprocal trust, acceptance, and unconditional love. An approachable parent with his obedient son or daughter.
Please help keep this annual devotional guide's tradition alive.
