06 Apr Easter Story: Stryker, Ohio

From Nick Woodall, senior pastor of Stryker UB church (Stryker, Ohio)

Stryker United Brethren held a Lenten luncheon every Wednesday. The menu included donated soup, sandwiches, cookies, and appropriate menu items. We divided the hour into two parts:

• 11:30 – 12:00: meal.
• 12:00 – 12:30: worship service.

Each week a different community pastor spoke for 10-12 minutes. We also had special music from different churches.

The Lenten luncheons were attended by a wide variety of people from the community, including a bus of clients from the Quadco sheltered workshop attended.
