PALM SUNDAY - Jesus rode into Jerusalem riding a donkey. No grand procession. No cadre of guards. Just Jesus with a small group of followers praising him while he weeps. What does this say about his heart? We will also be celebrating Communion. A devotional booklet is available for Passion Week to help you focus on the events leading up to Easter. Join us in person at 10 a.m. or watch online at Church Online.

PRAISE GOD - Mission Aviation pilot Ryan Koher was conditionally released from prison in Mozambique. He has been to a doctor for a checkup and met with the U.S. Ambassador to Mozambique and some of his staff.

Please continue to pray that the case will be quickly dismissed and Ryan is granted a full release and that he can be reunited with his family soon. Koher Update

GIVING - Generosity has little to do with how much you have.  It has everything to do with the attitude of your heart and your faithful obedience to God. Generosity is one of those perspective-altering things…when we focus on the needs of others, we become less selfish and happier.  When you think about God’s goodness and grace, despite our own mess-ups, our perspective changes. You can place your gifts in the donation box in the foyer or use the debit machine there. You can also give via eTransfers or Give Online
