Looking ahead . . .

We continue our “2020 Vision” series. This month, we are seeing with Jesus’s eyes.

►April 12 — Easter Sunday

Never underestimate the power of prayer

No problem you might have
is too big for God to handle.

The peace of Christ be with you—
—and also with you.
Passing the peace is a deeply theological practice of reconciliation not replicated in secular culture.
We greet each other in Christ, laying aside our differences — at least for the hour.

‘Time with the children’
Our 10 a.m. services normally include
this segment focused on young worshipers.
