Pastor's Corner
Dear Friends,
“For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures, and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve. Then he appeared to more than five hundred brothers at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have fallen asleep.” (1 Corinthians 15:3–6 ESV)
This passage written by the Apostle Paul is the summary of the good news of Easter: Christ died and He has risen.
This Friday and Sunday we will remember and celebrate the crucifixion and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ! I look forward to our times of worship together!
See you Friday, 6pm and Sunday, 9:30am!
By His grace and to His praise,
Pastor Wilson
