Welcome to First Baptist Church of Pendleton
As we aspire to keep Jesus at the center of our lives, we are Rooted in Faith, and Growing in Love. We endeavor to be a welcoming and affirming community of grace for all people, loving our neighbors because God first loved us.
Our Lenten Worship Theme is Everything [in] Between
Each week’s theme invites us to take a closer look in the middle of what we often suppose to be extremes:
stranger & neighbor | the good Samaritan (First Sunday of Lent, Mar 9)
faith & works | Mary & Martha (Second Sunday of Lent, Mar 16)
rest & growth | parable of the fig tree (Third Sunday of Lent, March 23)
lost & found | parable of the lost sheep (Fourth Sunday of Lent, March 30)
righteousness & mercy | Zacchaeus meets Jesus (Fifth Sunday of Lent, April 6)
shouting & silence | Jesus enters Jerusalem (Palm Sunday, April 13)
grief & hope | Resurrection (Easter Sunday, April 20)
March 16, 2025 · 10:45 am · Second Sunday of Lent
