Wednesday Word: February 25

Feb 25, 2026

Verse of the Day~

Blessed is the one

whose transgressions are forgiven,

whose sins are covered.

Blessed is the one

whose sin the Lord does not count against them

and in whose spirit is no deceit. (Psalm 32:1-2)

Prayer~

Lord, grant me the grace and wisdom required to forgive myself and others, so that my mind and body may be weightless to carry out Your work, serving all of Your children. In your name, Jesus, I pray. Amen.

Meeting Jesus ~

Join us this Sunday for the second week of Lent and a communion Sunday, as we continue our sermon series on the Screwtape Letters. The message, “All Extremes are to be Encouraged,” will cover the temptation to live by extremes, and the dangers that it causes.

Meeting Friends ~

Pueblo Presbytery Summer Camp 2026 applications are now open! If you enjoy hiking, making crafts, and praising the Lord, then summer camp would be a great time for you. Located at Ponderosa Camp in the Colorado Springs area, summer camp is happening from June 1-6. Campers (3rd-8th graders) can apply any time before then; however the deadline for interns (9th-12th grade) and leaders is April 1st. Contact the church office for more details, or register at: https://pueblopresbytery.org/youthcamp

Sharing Hope ~

We have some great opportunities to serve the church and God’s kingdom. We’re looking for a new Volunteer Missions Coordinator, Church Secretary, Volunteer VBS Director, and Youth Group Leaders for 2026-27. See Pastor MJ or any of the Ministry Staff for more information.

Finally, a Special Invitation~

The walls of the upstairs bathroom are calling you! We have the paint. We just need painters. See Pastor MJ if you can help paint during the week of Spring Break, beginning March 16.
