Easter lilly

There will be TWO different services of worship on Easter Sunday morning (April 9):

9:00 AM – Remembrance Service with communion

9:45 AM – Fellowship time (Easter breads)

10:15 AM – Easter Worship Service

Tom Harmon will be our guest speaker during the 10:15 am Worship Service.  The choir will be singing at both services.

Children’s Church will be available during the Easter Worship Service but not during the Remembrance Service.  There will be no Sunday School on Easter Sunday.

Between the two services, there will be a time of fellowship downstairs in the Fellowship Hall.  We are asking people to bring Easter breads, cut and ready to share during this time.
