Study for Tuesday February 19

Hey ladies!

Thanks to Lydia for organizing Tuesday's service activity and for those that came. What a great night! Can't wait to share with everyone on Tuesday. If anyone wants to post some comments up about your experience please do.

Here are the verses for next week's study and some questions to think about as you go through the readings that we will discuss. Lydia, Carmel, & Jess are up for providing dinner. See you at Em's place at 7 p.m.!

Matthew 3:13 - 17 Luke 3:21 John 1: 32-34
What was the importance of baptism throughout scripture?
What was the significance of Jesus' baptism? Why was it necessary? Where else do we see Jesus refer to baptism?

Matthew 4:1-11 Luke 4: 1-13
What is happening here? Why do you think Jesus was faced with these temptations by Satan?
How does Jesus respond?
Have you ever come off a high with God and felt under attack by Satan soon after? Perhaps after feeling called to a specific ministry or relationship or job? Have you felt spiritually disconnected? Not fed? Why do you think Satan chooses these times to tempt or attack us?

What do we need to be careful of in ministry when serving others? What are some temptations we may face to deter us from actively participating in serving God's kingdom?

Service Opp. #1

Hi Everyone!

It was great to see those of you who were there on Tuesday evening, and for those who could not make it, we definitely missed you!

So, here are the details for the service project next Tuesday:

We will be spending time with some lovely elderlies at the Stoddard Baptist (Nursing) Home located at 1818 Newton St. NW.

Our group will meet at the Cleveland Park Metro Station (Red line) at 6:50-6:55 to load up into the three cars (Jess and Laura, Skye, and mine) to drive the 5 minutes to the home.

For those of you that can make it earlier, there was mention of grabbing dinner at California Tortilla, I think Skye will be heading that up. :)

We are planning on making Valentine's Day cards with the residents, so get ready to be creative. :)

Thank you in advance to those of you who are coming next week, we are so excited to serve with you all!

Lydia
