- Easter is a big day at Living Hope and there are a couple announcements as we prepare to celebrate Jesus’ resurrection this year on April 16th. Our Sunday events will begin with a brunch before the service followed by a special Easter service and an Egg Hunt for the kids after the service. I hope you will plan to invite your family and friends to this special service.
- We are looking for those that would like to provide Easter Lilies, which you can take home after the service, for Easter Sunday decorations. Please sign up using the bulletin insert or contact Caryl P.
- We are also collecting financial donations for Easter Candy for the Egg Hunt (designated for Egg Hunt) or small wrapped candy donations that can fit in the plastic eggs. Please contact Kendra D with any questions.
- This would be a good time for you to review our previous Monthly Memory verses along with the one for March’s verse: January – Luke 11:34; February – 2 Peter 1:3; and March Philippians 4:6-7. Come Sunday prepared to recite it! Also, if you are looking for a good phone app, I recommend the Scripture Typer App. (IOS and Android)
- I know August seems a long way off, but Family Camp is just around the corner. Let me encourage you to plan now to join us as we head back to Lake Cushman over the weekend of August 25-27. If you are interested please let us know so we can reserve a site for you. It is also a great event to bring a friend to.
- Thanks to those that have submitted memory verses. The pastors will be reviewing the submissions for the March verse. Please text, email your favorite verse and the reason why.
- The lesson from Jesus’ life this week is on prayer. Jesus taught a great deal about prayer. Our focus this week will be on how He modeled prayer. I know that you will be encouraged and challenged to tap into God’s power in your life through prayer. The message is “Live by Prayer!” And what a great time to start praying for this Sunday’s message. You could shoot off a quick prayer for me and the service right now and as the Lord brings the service to mind. Thanks.
