Celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus at Northbrook
Northbrook UMC has some very special events planned for the Lent and Easter season. Please join us! All are welcome.
You can pick up your family's purple Lenten Bag at the Ash Wednesday worship service, or throughout Lent in the Narthex or church office. We encourage families to collect loose change in these bags to be donated at Easter to Trinity Table, a mission of Atlanta's Trinity UMC.
The curriculum to accompany our Lenten sermon series is a book called "The Difficult Words of Jesus." If you'd like a copy of this book, they are $10 each and available in the church office.
You can pick up a physical copy of the Lent Devotion Guide in the Narthex or church office throughout Lent. Or, you may download an electronic copy here.
On Easter Sunday, the altar will be filled with Easter lilies given in honor or in memory loved ones. If you ordered one, please take it home with you on Easter Sunday to enjoy. Lilies left behind will be given out to those on the Northbrook prayer list and others in the congregation and community.
