Elder-Led Prayer, Easter Celebration, Baptism (Pastoral Emphasis for 3/25)

Last Sunday was My Hope Sunday and we're excited that Sis. Parris Penland, granddaughter of Bro. Joe & Sis. Brenda Hancock, joined on Christian Experience and is a candidate for Baptism.

Please pray for the following members experiencing bereavement: Sis. Betty Holman (passing of mother who was also the grandmother of Sis. Tamullia Jones).

This is the last week of Lent. So as our fast comes to a close, join us for an hour of prayer at Elder-Led Prayer on Wednesday from 6 to 7pm. If you are unable to attend, you can submit your prayer request online and we'll pray for you.

 Join us and invite a friend for our Easter Celebration this weekend: 
  • Good Friday Service, 3/30, 6:30-7:30pm 
  • Egg Hunt, 3/31, at 2pm 
  • Easter Program, 3/31, at 3pm 
  • Sunrise Easter Service, 4/1 at 6am (There will not be a 10am service)

Congratulations to Sis. Regina Sands who is getting married but will be transferring her membership to her new husband's church. Today is her last official Sunday as a member. We are thankful for her many years of faithful service and will miss her.

Praise God for the two men and young lady that were baptized today! We rejoice in their public profession of faith and identification of Jesus' death and resurrection through the act of water baptism.

Minnesota School Shooting, Music Ministry Recruitment, Ark Encounter Trip (Pastoral Emphasis for 8/31)

Minnesota School Shooting Our hearts are heavy over the tragic school and church shooting in Minneapolis at Annunciation Catholic School, where two children lost their lives and many others—some as young as six—are recovering from serious injuries. Sadly, we couldn't get through a full week of traditional school before something like this happens. In this time of profound sorrow, let us hold close in prayer the grieving parents, families, and the entire Annunciation community. Though we cannot fully comprehend their pain, we can stand alongside them in faith, offering compassion, and intercession. May God bring comfort to those who mourn, healing to the wounded, and peace to a terrified community.  Of course, a mass shooting always brings up the issue for stricter gun laws. I agree we do need good legislation and sensible gun laws because it is the government's responsibility to protect its citizens. Ultimately, that will not solve our problem. For a country that has been ...
