Dear Friends in Christ,
Last Saturday and Sunday during worship, the pastors shared that long time friend and member of Hope, Harold Leighton had a massive stroke.
Harold passed away this morning at about 6:00 AM.
Because of the needs of various family members, the service will be soon – on this Thursday, February 25, at 1:00 PM to 2:45 PM.
Please expect a longer than average service, about one hour and 45 minutes. Although we will not have open microphone, many family members will speak. The service will be followed by a reception in Covenant Hall.
We offer our love and prayers for the whole family and their multitude of close friends.
Blessings and Peace,
Pastor Brian Kent

Two Hope UMC Bible Study Notices! of The Hope United Methodist Church of San Diego, California, United States with Senior Pastor Brian Kent
From Rev. Drew Davis:
Lenten Study Week 2 is This Saturday Night (Feb 20) following the SNA service. This week it will be self directed prayer stations that will be set up in the Jones Building from 6pm to 7pm.
Please remember the scriptural focus will take place during the SNA Worship Service as we look at our interaction with Christ's actions and these self-directed prayer stations will focus on the "Three Graces".
No Potluck this week.
From Rev. Carol Millspaugh:
Navigating Life’s Transitions: Biblical Wisdom for Today
Have you recently retired? Faced a significant health challenge or loss in your life? Moved to a new job or new location? Faced another major transition?
Our church will offer a 5 week study exploring how biblical stories and individuals offer us wisdom in our own times of change and transition in life. Together we will learn from our family in the faith, including Abraham and Sarah, Moses’ mother, Jesus, Peter, and others. Each session will be self-contained, and you are welcome to attend as many classes as you wish. Rev. Carol Millspaugh, a retired United Methodist pastor, will lead this class. All are welcome to attend, and beginners in Bible study are especially invited!
The class will meet on Tuesday mornings for 5 weeks., beginning on March 1, from 10:00 to 11:30 AM, in room J5 at the church. Please bring a Bible to class, and bring a friend! (If child care is needed, please contact the church office at least 1 week in advance.) Looking forward to seeing you there!
