Lenten Luncheons Underway

The 2024 Community Lenten Luncheons are underway and already off to a great start!

Monaca UMC welcomed approximately 80 people for the first luncheon, held February 21st, where guests were treated to a delicious lunch coordinated by Vicki Kane and a devotion provided by Pastor Jim Sands.

Monaca UMC is pleased to serve as the host location for all five luncheons this year. We especially thank Vicki Kane for organizing this year’s event with neighboring churches and the many staff and volunteers who are working to create a warm and welcoming environment for everyone who attends.

The remaining lunches and devotions are being provided by:

FEBRUARY 28: First Presbyterian Church, Monaca | The Rev. Bob Saul

MARCH 6: Redeemer Trinity Lutheran Church | The Rev. Angela Smith

MARCH 13: St. John the Baptist Church, Monaca; Mary, Queen of Saints Parish | Deacon Bob Bittner

MARCH 20: Monacrest Free Methodist Church | The Rev. Collene Carney

All residents of Monaca and the surrounding area are welcome to this time of spiritual growth with caring neighbors, good food, and inspirational devotions. Join us!
