Promises

Love and Life as a New Covenant Community

Throughout the season of Lent we invite all Park Street congregants to join a Lenten Discipleship Institute (LDI) small group as we consider together the promises extended to us by Jesus Christ. In the upper room discourse in John 13–17 as the Last Supper unfolds, Jesus established a new covenant people whose primary command is to love. Such love leads to flourishing life in the midst of a challenging world. Jesus extends to us amazing blessings and extraordinary promises as we live our our lives faithfully in response to the new covenant he has established with us. We will explore how such a life is lived out in the midst of a 2021 world.

LDI 2021 will run from February 21–March 28 meeting every Sunday. Registration and more details to come soon!

TUE, FEB 9 | 7:30–8:30 PM

On Fireside Chat next Tuesday, Mark Booker will be our featured speaker on the topic of love. This event will be appropriate for everyone, and will have planned stories from various people, though there will be no salon after (breaking from our usual custom). Expect a larger than normal, very sweet, inspirational and fun evening for the whole church! Please join us on Fireside Chat next week.

If you can still find your link from earlier Firesides, it will still work, but if not, click here to register and you will receive a personal email from Greg with your very own link. The Fireside is unique in that each person has their own, individual link for security purposes.

Park Street Church has opened a Warming Center. Neighbors are invited in for a 90-minute chance to get warm, eat a meal, charge their phone, and use the restroom. We also serve grab-and-go meals and hot drinks at the entrance to our church. We are seeking volunteers for the following: 

• Make Sandwiches from Home and bring them to the church for our neighbors. SIGN UP 
• Become an In-Person Volunteer: Contact Kimberley Morrison to sign up for a 2-hour shift on a Saturday. 

We are excited about the new opportunities we have through the Warming Center to have conversations with our neighbors; pray for them; and build relationships. Last Saturday, we had folks honking their horns thanking us for this gift to our neighbors! 

Sundays at 10:45 AM & 3:45 PM

Gather with fellow undergraduates as we stream church services together and then spend time in fellowship, reflection, and prayer. Join the morning community to stream the 11:00 AM (traditional) or the evening community to stream the 4:00 PM (contemporary). We hope to grow together in wisdom as we develop a deeper understanding of who God is on an intellectual and personal level. Students of all spiritual backgrounds are welcome! Contact Alexis.

Park Street’s FOCUS ESL program needs more volunteers for the Language Partners program. We have 17 students this semester who have registered to be matched up with a language partner for one-on-one English conversation practice. The commitment is meeting once a week from now through April, day and time chosen by you and the student. If you are interested and/or know anyone who might be, please email Karen Patschke, Park Street’s ESL Coordinator.  

Please consider sharing the class descriptions and registration form with your international friends!
