Ash Wednesday Service

This Wednesday - February 21st - we will be having an Ash Wednesday Service. The service will be similar to the advent spiral that we had at Christmas time except in observance of Lent and Easter. This is a great opportunity to bring friends who are searching for a spiritual experience but not necessarily a church experience. It will be in the fellowship hall of the established Oly First building at 6:30pm. Hope to see everyone there.

Community and Pizza

This Saturday night we will enjoy a time of community by making homemade pizza's at Joanna's house. This will be a great opportunity to invite people (and kids) into a nonthreatening environment and allows everyone a chance to get to know eachother.

Joanna has asked that we rsvp with her just to get an approximate count. So please call Joanna Miller @ 357-5945 and RSVP by Friday morning. If you need a ride or just want to carpool or follow - meet at the Emmaus House at 6:15pm. Also, feel free to call Joanna for directions.

Hope to see everyone for this wonderful time of community!!

Faith and Films


This Saturday we will meet at the Emmaus House at 5:30pm for Faith and Films.

We will be watching the movie 'Jesus Camp.'
This riveting Oscar-nominated documentary offers an unfiltered look at a revivalist
subculture where devout Christian youngsters are being primed to deliver the
fundamentalist community's religious and political messages. Building an evangelical
army of tomorrow, the Kids on Fire summer camp in Devil's Lake, N.D., is dedicated
to deepening the preteens' spirituality and sowing the seeds of political activism as
they're exhorted to "take back America for Christ."
