Holy Week at Peace -- April 17-20, 2014

Dear Friends,

A twenty-two year old man came into church today looking for a phone to use, as his cell had died.  Once inside he realized that he needed more than a phone.  He needed to be heard and to gain a little hope.  In some way, we all come to church seeking to be heard and looking for hope.  This is the week-end for bountiful hope!  No conflict, no problem, not even death can take our hope away forever.  Thanks be to God for raising Christ from the dead.  We live as people with hope!

Maundy Thursday at 7:00 – a time to remember Christ’s call to love one another.
Good Friday at 7:00 – a time to reflect on Christ’s loving sacrifice

Easter Sunday at 8:00, 9:30, and 11:00 – a time to joyfully celebrate the new life we have in Christ!

Remember the One Great Hour of Sharing Offering.   Fill those fish boxes & offering plates to help the hungry, the poor, and those struck by disaster.  Thanks to all who already gave!
Looking ahead,

Saturday, April 26 at 5:00 – a time for good food, fun, and fundraising for the youth.  Bring those door prizes and silent auction items in as soon as possible.   Put them in Room 17.
Sunday, April 27 at 9:45 –the first of six weekly small groups to discuss the Goals of Peace.    Please plan to participate as we need YOUR perspective.

April 27-May 11 -- Mission Team Diaper Drive for Mother’s Day
Grace, mercy, and peace to you all,

Elizabeth
