Pastor Vickie Beilfuss will be starting a study using the popular video series The
Chosen on Feb. 12. It is a very interesting interpretation of the life & ministry of
Jesus as seen through the eyes of his chosen followers. It will include watching
the videos while sharing a potluck meal at 6 pm at Holy Trinity (Lanse) and then
opening a discussion at 7pm. The study will be held the 2nd & 4th Wednesdays of
the month. Any questions, contact Pastor Vicki – pr.vickibeilfuss@gmail.com
