February 14 Bulletin Announcements
COMMUNITY LIFE
Lenten Church-Wide Covenant Life Groups Begin Today: Sign-up sheets are available in the foyer. Small group studies for children, youth and adults will journey to the foot of the Cross through the weekly study, which coincides with the Sunday sermon. The Lenten theme, Blood: The Power of Crucifixion, will study the biblical images and understandings of Christ's death for us.
Freedom Sunday, February 21: We will have a special emphasis that day on human trafficking, and what the Church of the Nazarene is doing around the world, as well as here in Kansas City. And you'll hear the answer: the Cross of Jesus Christ, which brings freedom to those captive in sin!
District T.E.A.M. Day, Saturday, February 27, 8 AM – 1 PM at Olathe College Church. (Coffee at 7:30, onsite registration at 8). You will be challenged with relevant workshops for children, youth and adult ministries. Contact the church office by Monday, February 15th, if you would like to attend.
Chili Cook-Off & Auction: Our second annual Chili Cook-Off and Silent Auction will take place on Saturday, March 5th at 6:00 PM. This will be a fun evening of food, friends, and goodies. All money raised benefits youth activities and camp for the coming year. We are accepting sign-ups for chili and contributions to the silent auction. For more information, see Pastor Travis. Thank you for supporting our teens!
The children's department is in need of 40-50 empty (one dozen) egg cartons. Please bring your donations to Karla Christy by March 12th.

PULSE & ONE MINISTRIES
Connect Groups: On February 21st, Connect Groups will take place at Ben Johnson's house from 6:30-8:30 PM. Please bring a snack and drink to share. We will share a meal and reflect on the season of Lent together.
Pulse: During Lent, we will be exploring the sacrifice that comes with being a Christian. What are those things that God calls us to lay at the altar? What ways are we called to serve others? Please join us as we journey through this season together.
