E-Blast Saturday March 30, 2024

Christ is alive! Let Christians sing.  

His cross stands empty to the sky!

Let streets and homes with praises ring. 

His love in death shall never die.

Christ is alive and comes to bring

Good news to this and every age,

til earth and all creation ring

with joy, justice, love, and praise!

Brian Wren UMH 318 

Tomorrow is Easter Sunday!  Christ is risen!  Christ is risen indeed!  The resurrection of Jesus Christ brings HOPE to everyone!

Praying that you, your friends, and family have a blessed Easter and draw closer to God through the resurrection of Jesus Christ!

Thank you to our church staff, our musicians, and everyone who makes this Easter season a joyous celebration.

The adult reading cart is for anyone, and has a nice selection of really good books.  Stop by and check one out.  Also, the children have a very large selection of books available for all ages.  The children's book corner is decorated for Easter and has a big selection of Easter themed titles.  There is a checkout sheet on the wall -- let's get some new readers.
