Hey All,
A Big Thanks to all the Cold Weather Shelter Helpers!!
You guys did an awesome job. The food worked out great, even if we brought too much. I know some of you were involved in other areas as well. The CWS turned out really great this year, the guests didn’t want to leave. You had an impact on them and just showed them that the body of Christ truly cares.
Pie Day - Friday March 14
In celebration of Pi day, 3.14, we’re going to be eating some pies and catching a movie. We’re going to watch “Amazing Grace” since we didn’t get a chance to last movie night. Cook your favorite pie and bring it with you to the church. We’ll meet around 7pm. I’ll bring my portable grill and some hotdogs and hamburgers. If someone else could bring buns or sodas that would be awesome, please respond to this email letting me know what you’re going to bring.
Weekly Devotional - Tuesday March 18
There will be a devotional/bible study meeting at 7pm at the worship center.
Good Friday Service - Friday March 21
The whole church will join us for worship at 7:00 pm on Friday, March 21. This will be a respectful, biblical experience that will draw you closer to our Lord and Savior on the day of his crucifixion. We hope that you can attend; visitors are welcome as well.
Easter Sunday - Sunday March 23
Worship the risen Christ with us at 9:00 and 10:30 a.m. If you have children, stick around after the second service for our egg hunt, which will be at PlaywiseKids this year. Get your children from Kids Club, and bring them to the worship center for instructions. Then we will go to the egg hunt as a group. When the hunt is over, children are welcome to play at PlaywiseKids at a discounted rate. We are looking for six volunteers to help hide the eggs and set up before the hunt and six volunteers to help clean up and gather any missing eggs after the hunt. If you would like to volunteer please contact Maggie S. We have invitation cards for these activities available at the welcome center and at other locations around the church for you to give to your friends�feel free to take as many as you�d like!
