LENT PHOTO-A-DAY PROJECT 2016
Spirituality:  Discovering God Together Through Scripture, Tradition, Reason and Experience . . . and even fun!

1stChurch members are invited to join in a project through ReThink Church.   You are invited to send your pictures too.   You do not have to have a fancy camera or a pro photographer.  If you want to sign up through Rethink Church the link is below.  If you want to send your picture to the website, then please use the tab below. You can also submit your photograph directly through the First Church Facebook page.  Please include the word for the day along with your picture and your name. (If you would like to explain how the picture helped you to reflect on the word of the day feel free to do so.) If the picture says it without words, that is fine as well. This is not a contest, just a collective effort to "focus" on a word for the day which might "capture" a moment which helps you connect in some way with this important season - - and then also to share this connection with others.
