NOTE: We are gathering on Friday April 12th instead of Thursday this week.
This week, group will be a little different.We are going to discuss the Passover Seder as the elements point to Christ and His death, burial, and resurrection! It's a really neat, fun evening, so please come if you're able. We will be meeting on Friday evening instead of our regular Thursday to have more time to prepare and participate in the meal.We are not timing this meal to coincide with the Jewish Passover. We aren't trying to celebrate a proper Jewish Passover, but rather walk through the elements as they point to Christ. The following Thursday will be our scatter week, allowing for a free week to attend the Good Friday service and fully celebrate His death, burial, and resurrection.
We will gather on Friday, April 12th, at 5:30pm. The address is 17512 NW Fieldstone Dr Beaverton OR 97006.
