Lent and Easter Resources

  • Getting Our Act Together by Kelli Williams
    03/04/2012 Each spring at Alaska Children’s Services a wonderful community event happens. It’s our Spring Banquet and Talent Show. The name of the event is “Get Your Act Together!” It’s a very tongue-in-cheek title that slips by many.
  • Can a Rainbow Come in the Clouds Without an Ark First? by Rosângela Oliviera
    02/26/2012 The last time I saw a bow in the clouds, colorful like a rainbow, was this past January. I was in São Paulo, Brazil, and a summer shower came over us in the streets. Then came the sun. Behind the buildings, there it was: a rainbow.
  • Coming to Terms With God by Glory E. Dharmaraj
    02/16/2012 Time and change are each the other’s measure. A life span may be two millennia for a sequoia tree or a day for a mayfly. But it is still one life.
  • A Community of Women by Judi Nibbelink, director, Women's Division
    04/23/2011 It is on this day, this Saturday between Good Friday and Easter, that I truly understand the significance of United Methodist Women and what this bond of community means in my life.
  • The Gift of Good Friday by Carmen Faye Sanford-Vianese, director, Women's Division
    04/22/2011 Isaiah foretold of God's plan to fix it all. God would have to take on our iniquity. To do so, God had to become a human being who could experience physical death.
  • Let Us Serve One Another by Tupou Seini Kelemeni, director, Women's Division
    04/21/2011 We have been empowered by the Holy Spirit, just like the disciples, to go out and serve and love others.
  • A Last Meal by Kathy Booker, president, Southeastern Jurisdiction
    04/20/2011 When reflecting on the Last Supper and what's occurring in the world today, how many of our sisters and brothers are having their last meal due to the economy, poverty or unforeseen circumstances like natural disasters?
  • The Joy That Comes in the Morning by Ilda G. Vasquez, president, South Central Jurisdiction
    04/19/2011 Jesus predicted his death and tells the crowd, "While you have the light, believe in the light, so that you may become children of light."
  • The Freedom of Humbleness by Sabrina White, president, Northeastern Jurisdiction
    04/17/2011 Jesus came to Jerusalem some 2000 years ago, humble, and mounted on a donkey, with a colt, the foal of a donkey (beast of burden). Luke tells us Jesus wept "as he came near and saw the city" because they "did not recognize the time of [their] visitation from God"
  • Predictions by Lois R. Travillon, president, North Central Jurisdiction
    04/16/2011 Just as Jesus was focused on people, United Methodist Women members are focused on women, children and youth.
  • Let Us Pray by Inelda Gonzáles, president, Women’s Division
    04/15/2011 We live in a world where things can be shaken.
  • Tending the Sheep by Nancy Hudson, Women’s Division director, South Georgia
    04/14/2011 During this Lenten season, let us reflect on our responsibility as United Methodist Women. We have been called by God to tend his sheep.
  • It’s Not Too Late to Save Creation by Deaconess Pat Hoerth, Red Rock, Okla.
    04/13/2011 Jeremiah teaches us that if we do what God calls us to do, through our modern-day environmental prophets, that we can trust God to do all that God can.
  • Be the Breath of God by Deaconess Ann Janzen, Asheville, N.C.
    04/12/2011 All Christians are called to bring new life into God's world by being channels for the breath of God.
  • Bring Life to the Dead by Missionary Susie Brunk, Booneville, Ky.
    04/11/2011 We have the opportunity to touch spiritually dead people with the saving grace of the Gospel of Christ.
  • God's Glory Shines Through You by Deaconess Rosie Guadarrama Upland, Calif.
    04/10/2011 When we have those moments of "little faith" it is important to reflect and do some soul searching to find out why we are where we are in life.
  • Helping Fulfill God's Promise by Deaconess Sarah Capers, Brooklyn, N.Y.
    04/09/2011 When I look at this community and the people who live here I am reminded of Ezekiel 36:8-16 when God promises the mountains that they will no longer be allowed to kill God's people.
