Pastor’s weekly newsletter | 03-26-2021

Dear Church Family and Friends,

We hope you are safe and well and pray that we come to a quick conclusion with this pandemic.

This Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week and I want to give you the schedule for Holy Week. All services will be held in our parking lot/courtyard area:

March 28 — Palm Sunday, 11 a.m.

April 1 — Maundy Thursday, 7:30 p.m. (bring your own communion)

April 4 — Easter Sunrise Service, 7 a.m.

April 4 — Easter Service, 11 a.m.

This Sunday is an important and significant day in the life of the church. It is Palm Sunday; the day Jesus enters Jerusalem riding a donkey. You would have thought that Jesus would have made a more glorious entrance, but the donkey represents peace and Jesus came to bring us peace in our hearts, in our lives and in the world. Palm Sunday confronts us with a decision. Will we truly follow Jesus all the way to the cross or will we sit on the sidelines and yell, “Hosanna” and do nothing?

Reverend Amy Howe will be reading our Scripture Lesson from Matthew 21:1-11 and bring the prayer. The title of the sermon is: 8 Days Until Eternity!

Please keep in your prayers, Barry Gibson, Beth Childress and Diana Jones and others facing the challenges of cancer and health issues.

Have a blessed weekend,

Pastor Daniel
