Just
a few items I want to remind you about.
Good Friday Service
Tonight at 7PM we will have a Good Friday
service. Pastor Eva will be sharing the
message.
Easter Preparation Work Day – We need your help!
The trustees have scheduled a work day on Saturday, April 15th
at 9am. They will be cleaning out a storage room to make room for
additional Sunday school classrooms.
We also have a few thousand plastic eggs that need to be filled
with candy. Stephanie will be working
with as many volunteers as we can to finish this job before Sunday. There will be lunch provided to all those who
come out to help.
Easter Offering
The Easter Offering is for the World Evangelism
Fund (WEF). Traditionally, WEF is collected through two large offerings each
year “the Thanksgiving and Easter offerings.” The Nazarene Church has
always had a strong history of supporting missions through their generous giving
through these offerings.
The law of harvest states that you may not reap
when and where you sow—but you will always reap what you sow. As we prepare to
give to this offering, remember it will come back to you (Luke 6:38) and the
Lord…will bless you in everything Deuteronomy 15:10.
Easter
Sunday April 16th
We
will start our day with a Breakfast at 9:00 AM – 10:15AM. Followed by our Easter Service at 10:45 AM
and at the conclusion of the Easter worship service we will have the children’s
EASTER EGG HUNT for everyone 6th grade and under.
Church
Election
On
Sunday April, 23rd we will have our annual election of church
officers. Make this a matter of prayer
that we might have the leaders God wants for us at this time. The church manual gives us these directions
about our election:
“We
direct our local churches to elect as church officers only persons who profess
the experience of entire sanctification and whose lives bear public witness to
the grace of God that calls us to a holy life; who are in harmony with the
doctrines, polity and practices of the Church of the Nazarene; and who support
the local church faithfully in attendance and with tithes and offerings.”
