Hello
Emmanuel,
What
a great day yesterday! 7 Baptisms. 9 new members. 3 re-affirmations. Can it get any better? Yes, it can…. As soon as next weekend.
The
reason yesterday could be so great is because of next Sunday. Easter gives us reason to celebrate God’s
grace. Easter weekend is full of
activity (Breakfast 8:15-10:30; Services at 9:00 and 10:30). With the egg hunt on Saturday (1:00 at
Batavia Township Park), it makes it even more exciting. We will be inviting, welcoming, inspiring and
teaching what new life is all about.
Oh….
And then there is Thursday. Thursday
doesn’t get as much of the attention as Sunday does, for obvious reasons. However, consider the significance of this
Thursday in your walk through this week of holiness. Before the tragedy of Friday and the miracle
of Sunday is the somber fellowship of Thursday.
Jesus spends time with His friends and His friends don’t entirely
understand why.
I
invite you to come Thursday at 7:00 to spend time with some friends and to understand
why. We celebrate fellowship. We remember Jesus last moments before the
weekend. We consider the meaning of His
words as we look forward to resurrection.
You are invited to commune with us.
Perhaps it is the primer you need for…
Resurrection
of Well Being….
It
is the new Sunday sermon series that will explore what resurrection means for
you right now. New life is present, not just
a future hope. Are you living like you
have a new start? The empty tomb
certainly gives you reason to do such.
We will look into the why’s and why nots; the how’s and how not’s; and
soaking up the encouragement that Jesus gives us. You are invited to be inspired with us.
God
is Good,
Pastor
Joe
