Holy Week Worship
 
Palm Sunday, April 2, will be a joyous service to recall the entrance of Jesus into Jerusalem.  As we remember how the city welcomed the Savior, we welcome Him into our church and our hearts in a joyous celebration of praise and worship.
 
Maundy Thursday, April 6 at 7:00PM, we’ll gather in the upper room to hear the words of institution and be a part of the Last Supper of our Savior Jesus Christ and then gather together at the table of grace and life which our Savior has set for us.
 
Good Friday – April 7 noon and 7pm. In words, prayers, songs and brief messages, we’ll gather beneath the cross to witness the innocent, bitter suffering and death of our Lord, Jesus, The Christ to prepare our hearts to return on Easter Sunday anxiously waiting to hear the good news of the resurrection. Adult Choir will be bringing special music to our 7:00PM worship.
 

Easter Celebration Worship April 9 will begin in the Sanctuary with 8:00AM and 11:00AM worship services, with musical offerings by the Adult Choir and Handbells at the 8:00AM service.  Easter Breakfast will be served from 9am-10:30am and our Egg Hunt for children is at 10am.  Remember to extend invitations to family, friends, and neighbors.  The Praise Band will be leading the 11:00AM service. Come and join the joyous celebration of the resurrection of our Savior and King!  Christ is Risen! Alleluia!  He is Risen!  Indeed!

 

Join us from 5:30-6:45pm for a delicious dinner of baked ziti, garlic bread, salad, and dessert.  (Plus, you don't have to worry about figuring our what to cook for dinner if you join us ....)
No, it's not too early to be thinking about Easter breakfast!  It is only three weeks away and those weeks will fly by!

Please join us for this delightful time of celebration, reconnecting, and fellowship!  And, yes, it takes a lot of planning and help.  If you'll be in town, please join us!  We'll look forward to seeing you, whether or not you can help, we really want you to come celebrate with us!

The
Men of Faith will be preparing and serving breakfast this year.  Thank you, guys!  (If you'd already signed up either to help or to supply, thanks, but take a break and enjoy the morning.)

If you have questions, please reach out to Gary Schleicher.
While you're out shopping, please throw a bag (or three) of individually-wrapped candies in your basket and then bring them to church to bless our children on Easter morning! 

Note:
EASTER CANDY is 33% off Friday, Saturday and Sunday only with digital coupon at Kroger!

Mission of the Month - March, April & May
First Care Women’s Clinic

First Care Women’s Clinic is an evangelical Christian non-profit organization that was established to reduce abortion by giving the support and information that people need to choose life.

We will be collecting items for the Baby Boutique. There is a basket in the school lobby for donations as well as the church narthex.

The Baby Boutique supports women who have chosen life by providing practical assistance. Clients who attend our Parenting and Prenatal Classes are able to participate in a class baby-shower where they receive new items to help with the first months of motherhood. Through a variety of ongoing classes, mothers earn “points” and are able to use them to shop the boutique. All items provided are free.

Faith's Food Pantry

The pantry had its biggest food bag delivery ever on February 28th. We delivered 250 bags to Brumby on February 28th. Brumby served over 220 families on March 14th and would have served more but ran out of food. Our next delivery will be April 4th which is Spring Break. We will also be making toiletry bags to deliver that day with a goal of 200 bags each of food and toiletries.
 
Thank you to everyone who has been helping to supply our peanut butter shelf. Everyone got a jar in their bag on the 28th but we still are needing more to fill our shelves.
