February 19, 2012 “Sharing the Lessons” Kat Hutter, DRE
In the children’s program, Sunday mornings at church are active, personal and participatory. This family day weekend we will have an intergenerational service that explores our church from the kid’s point of view. Expect storytelling, sharing over candles, songs, and a few hands on activities inspired by what our children have been learning.

February 26, 2012 Rev. Richard Reimer Lutheran Chaplain, University of Alberta
Struggling with forgiveness last year, I made it my Lenten discipline to read holocaust survivor Simon Wiesenthal's, "The Sunflower: On the Possibilities and Limits of Forgiveness." The cover of the book poses the provocative question, "You are a prisoner in a concentration camp. A dying Nazi soldier
asks for your forgiveness. What would you do?" I will reflect on what I gained from this exploration.
