Upcoming Services, Events & Opportunities to Serve
This was a difficult decision and will no doubt be a disappointment to the small and faithful group that has been regularly attending since September. We hope to see you all again soon, but until then, we'll be together on Facebook where our livestream will continue each Sunday morning at 9:30.
Pastor Greg Rupright encourages anyone who has a pastoral concern or prayer request to contact him at any time: revgregrup.ucc@gmail.com; 585-966-9416 (cell); 585-223-0224 (church).
THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 25th - CHECK OUT THE PASTOR'S BLOG BIBLE STUDY on Mark 1:9-15. Go to www.fairportucc.org and clck on Pastor's Blog.
SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 28th at 9:30 AM - SECOND SUNDAY IN LENT. The Reflection, "Walking A Way Nobody Wants to Go," will focus on Mark 8:31-38. Lent is the season of the cross. Therefore, Lent is a good time for the Church to gather to be taught by Jesus, even if the truth he teaches is a difficult truth to receive. Jesus is the Messiah, the Christ, a savior we did not expect. A suffering Messiah? The thought is inconceivable. Jesus loves us enough to teach us, to challenge us, and to love us into the truth. When we walk with Jesus, we walk the way of the cross. Jesus loves us enough to go to the cross for us. Jesus also loves us enough to invite us, even us, to walk a way that few want to travel. Heather Watras will share a Solo, "Holy Is The Lord," by Sally Deford. PLEASE JOIN THE 9:30 AM LIVE-STREAM WORSHIP SERVICE ON OUR CHURCH'S FACEBOOK PAGE:
