Happy Easter!!!
Happy Easter! He has risen, He has risen indeed! We have finally arrived at this glorious day! There is so much to say about the scripture for the day, but the best thing to do is come on over to the church and experience the Resurrection message in person! If you are reading this early enough, we would…

We are almost to the end of our study. We have one more day left, Easter Sunday. A lot can happen in 3 days and we are about to remember that. I hope to see you at our Good Friday Service today at noon and then again at one of our Easter Services. It is important for us to…

Lenten Study – April 14
Read Today’s Passage – Mark 14 When we were in the Holy Land a few years ago, we saw many neat things; in fact, we saw awesome things from almost sun up to sundown. It was a whirlwind of a trip and so much fun. The trip ended in Jerusalem, and I have to tell you that we were…

Read today’s passage. – Mark 12 When I think about “how” to learn to love people, I know there are many ways to accomplish this. One of the ways I started to widen my circle of people to love was to begin thinking about people I didn’t know and what they might need. This can be accomplished…

When I finally became part of a community that…

Lenten Study – April 7
One of my favorite vacations I took as a child was a 10-hour trip up in the mountains of Honduras to see the birth of a river. All of us five siblings and my parents piled up into a van for this long trip. It was a hassle. Someone had to go the bathroom, someone…

Lenten Study – April 6
So, I learned about easter eggs, the easter bunny, and easter candy when I came to the United States. I was so confused. We had celebrated Holy Week all my life, but never had Easter Eggs. I have grown to love painting the eggs and getting candy but still can’t find the relationship with that…

Lenten Study – April 5
This past couple of years we have practiced extreme “hand” hygiene. We wash our hands constantly and thoroughly. We sing a song to make sure we wash our hands long enough and we use hand sanitizer often. We even grab paper towels to open doors from public restrooms after we have washed our hands. I…
