Easter 2022
by Pastor Mike Winfree on March 29, 2022Dear Church,
There are many important days throughout the year, Christmas, New Years Day, Birthdays, Anniversaries and others. But, one of, if not, the most important days of the year is Easter. Nothing can compare to the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ. He is the Gospel. He is who we believe in for the salvation of our soul. Of all days, we should celebrate this day. Let’s make it a BIG day. Invite people to join you on that day. We will have Easter Sunrise service, breakfast, community groups and our Morning Worship service. Let’s come prayed up, prepared to worship and celebrate the resurrection of our Lord.
Since we started back in February our Community Groups have been growing. Small groups are so important to church life. It’s where we make connections, share needs and find support from one another. If you haven’t been in a while, let me encourage you to start back. Studying God’s Word is so beneficial to our whole being. I believe we can keep growing if we all put forth the effort to invite people to come with us.
We started season 2 of the series “The Chosen” on Wednesday’s. If you haven’t been yet, that’s okay, each episode stands alone and tells a part of the life of Jesus.
The choir started practicing again and for not being together for such a long period of time, they sounded pretty good. Thanks to everyone who has stepped up to make this happen.
Last but not least. Thank you to one and all who prepared the meal for the Live Nativity Appreciation Dinner. Great job!
Serving the Savior,
Pastor Mike
