Women’s Ministries would like to invite all regular visitors and Inquirer class members and their families to our Spring Luncheon to be held in the cafeteria on Sunday, April 15th immediately following the 10:25 a.m. worship service.

Maundy Thursday Communion Service
Please join us Thursday, April 5 at 6:30 P.M. The Thursday before Easter came to be called “Maundy” as the term is derived from the Latin mandatum or commandment referring to John 13:34, “A new commandment I give you, that you love one another.” Jesus gave this commandment to his disciples after washing their feet and sharing a meal with them at the Last Supper before His crucifixion. We will observe the Lord’s Supper and meditate on Christ’s suffering, crucifixion and death through scripture reading, congregational song and music by the Sanctuary choir and orchestra. What a wonderful opportunity to more fully prepare our hearts to celebrate our Savior’s glorious resurrection on Easter Sunday! Please plan to attend and prepare your hearts for this special service of worship. A nursery is provided for ages 2 and under.
Easter Lilies
Lilies will be placed in the sanctuary on Easter Sunday, April 8. If you would like to place a lily in memory or in honor of someone, please fill out one of the forms located around the sanctuary. The cost is $15.00 and these may be picked up after the 10:25 a.m. service on Easter.
