The Re-engagement Of Emmanuel.

Hello Church,

New life is slowly being breathed into us.  As I look around, I see the beginning edge of new engagement and I am excited about the possibilities....

- This past Sunday, Mckenzie and Kelsie Uhl got baptized.  What is more, part of Kevin's story got told.  The church engaged an entire family.

- Chad Ellis has a friend (who knew?).  His name is Frank.  Frank is going to revamp our website.  The focus?  Faith stories.  We will engage the on-line community in a new way.

- Part of the worship team met Monday night to plan Maundy Thursday and Good Friday.  It was a team effort.  Not only was new engagement happening amidst a re-established ministry team, but Emmanuel will be engaging Amelia UMC during Holy Week. 

- New leadership is being put into place.  Engaging those who have the passion and desire and will to lead in different ways is refreshing!

- There is lots more!  The new bulletin continues to evolve.  Every Sunday there will be information for you to learn about regarding the various plans to engage one another and God.... and how you can be a part of it.

The new ramp-up is for Easter Sunday (Apr. 21).  During the 10:30 worship service we will be celebrating resurrection.... not just of the Christ, but of the church... this church... Emmanuel is resurrecting.  A new vision.  A new focus.  A new approach.  A new life.

It isn't too late for you to get on-board.  Ministry teams are not set yet.  The doer list is not complete yet.  Come Sunday and continue to hear about it.
