GO AND LEARN THE MEANING OF THE WORD “MERCY”!
                                                                                                              Matthew  9: 13

Private Program

Two Thursday Evenings
7:00 pm – 8:30 pm

Our two part series on the Year of Mercy explores the core Biblical Narrative of God’s Mercy revealed in the Exodus experience.  Mercy as the core “definition” of God is something more than forgiveness and compassion.  Mercy points to the identity of God as the God who everyday shows us a mother’s love and a father’s care.  We will ponder and explore Luke 15 as the signature Gospel of Luke 15 for the Year of Mercy.
