Sunday, March 22, 2026 – The Fifth Sunday In Lent

Theme for the Day: A Thirst Quenched
Season Theme: Seven Simple, Powerful Words Of God’s Grace In Jesus Christ
Readings: Ezekiel 37:1-14; Romans 8:6-11; John 11:1-45

This Sunday we continue our Lenten journey reflecting on one of the simplest and most profound words spoken by Jesus from the cross: “I thirst.”

In John 11, we revisit the powerful story of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead and standing beside Mary and Martha in their grief. In Ezekiel, dry bones are given breath and life again. In Romans, we are reminded that the Spirit brings life and peace.

Together, these readings reveal a Savior who not only knows our thirst, but who thirsts for us. Jesus longs to quench our deepest needs for life, freedom, hope, purpose, relationship, faith, compassion, and salvation. Where we feel dry or weary, Christ brings living water. Where we feel empty, Christ brings resurrection life.

We also celebrate a special and joyful moment as Blake is baptized during worship with the Erin Johnson family. In the waters of baptism, God meets our thirst with grace, welcoming, claiming, and renewing life in Christ.

Worship Highlights:

• Scripture: Ezekiel 37:1-14; Romans 8:6-11; John 11:1-45

• Message: “A Thirst Quenched”

• Baptism
