 Blessings!


 Palm Sunday.     

  "They took branches of palm trees and went forth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna!  Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!"  John 12:13


*********************************************************

Good Morning everyone!  Just a reminder that we are printing a few weeks bulletins in advance for a short time, therefore, our printed praise and prayer requests will not be able to be updated weekly. Again, this is just temporary and will resume when able.  In the meantime, as always, let us remember to pray for one another. 

 

Every day Lord, we thank you for Your love and Your guidance.  We thank you for the joys and blessings You so freely give to us. We praise You for the beauty of the earth that surrounds us each day.   How can it not refresh our souls to gaze upon a flower, or to cast our eyes to the sky and witness the beauty of a sunrise or sunset?   In the hard times let us remember it is Your word that gives us strength.  It is Your love and compassion that we lean on for comfort.  Every one of us has trials, everyone has unspoken prayers. Today and every day Lord, we lift those up to you.  Continue to renew our hearts with Your strength and purpose.  Thanks be to God, Amen.

 

Today's Sermon:  "Celebrate"

Today's Hymns:

All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name

My dear friends,

Looking forward to Palm Sunday breakfast (and Jan's pancakes)

We will fellowship and CELEBRATE the code word for this week. 

Our song is "Hosanna" and we celebrate Jesus riding into Jerusalem with palms waving and people cheering.

Blessings!!

REMINDERS:

 

*This Sunday through the end of May our church will be doing soccer concessions.  We are looking for 3 to 4 people each Sunday to help.  We need to be there from 2:45 to 6:00.  There is a sign up sheet at church for those wishing to volunteer or help in any way.   This is a good fund raising opportunity for our church.
