                           The Gift of Breath
    God has given you a wonderful gift – your breath.   
    It is one of the most important tools of your
    physical body; having a profound effect on your
    nervous system, with the potential to increase your
    energy or promote relaxation.

    We often think that our breathing ability is
    automatic, yet our busy Western culture generates
    dysfunctional breathing habits that affect every
    aspect of our lives.

    In Yoga, we focus on effective breathing which has  
    tremendous influence on our immune system,
    mental outlook, emotional resilience and capacity
    to manage stress and learn healthy breathing.

                                                                                 Sunday, March 14th

    “Lent is a season of repentance, self-examination and awareness of the hurts of the peoples of the
    World.”

    “One Great Hour of Sharing” calls the church to share the goodness of life with those who hurt.  The
    Program  began in 1946 , and today most  Christian  denominations participate in this cooperative Spirit.
    This special offering enables UMCOR to do business and to send 100% of all designed funds to selected
    programs….

    Please help on Sunday, March 14th
    “In their distress they cried to Yahweh, Who delivered them from their woes; Who sent out a word to
    heal them, and delivered them from destruction.”  Psalm 107:19-20
