 Following
the Easter Sunday worship, the traditional Easter Egg Hunt
will be held on the church ground weather permitting, or in
the Parlor if necessary. Children of all ages are invited
to participate, and parents are welcome to bring cameras,
as picture-taking opportunities always abound!
Please
note: the Christian Education Committee is asking for donations
of small wrapped candy (such as Hershey Kisses) in preparation
for the Easter Egg Hunt. If you can contribute, please bring
the small wrapped treats to church on April 10 or April 17.
Thank you.

 JUST
A THOUGHT......................
(FROM THE PERSON IN THE NEXT PEW)
I have
been taking a winter break from writing anything! But I haven't
been taking a break from church. I've given thought about
what to write in this new year. I have decided what we need
to do is pray. I know you do a lot of that but what we need
is concentrated prayer about the world, our country, our state,
and our future in all of these places. I read an article recently
with a quote from a book that I liked. "Do we find a
quiet time, a minute or hour or day a week - to be alone with
God? We always seem driven to ‘do something' and are
so achievement oriented that we seldom make time for quiet
reflection, self examination, and simply ‘listening'
to God in prayer. It isn't long before we confuse our role
with God's role and responsibility to save us and save others.
If we can't be silent, then we can't listen to any voice -
not God's, not someone else calling us, and perhaps not even
our own inner voice yearning to be heard". Jesus was
born for us and he died for us. Pray to him and he will listen.
Happy Easter!!
