Spring is Here!

Hello! Hope this finds each and everyone of you doing well. I hope you are enjoying all this beautiful weather we have been blessed with. Spring is always such a busy time of year. We have to remember to take the time to slow down and enjoy the beautiful things God has put on this earth. While I can do without the pollen, I love seeing the grass getting all pretty and green. The flowers blooming, the birds chirping and most importantly, remembering that our Lord and Savior rose from the dead to save us from our sins. We have so much to be thankful for. We are blessed in so many ways. More than we can imagine.

I wanted to take a few minutes to update you on some things taking place at our church and in the community.

Sunday, April 10th is Good Friday. The church office will be closed. Plants for Bibles will be held at Swansea Baptist Church from 1:00-5:30pm. And there will be a XYZ meeting Friday night at 6:30pm in the fellowship hall. A meal will be provided and the group will be viewing a video of "90 Minutes in Heaven" (a book written by Don Piper).

Saturday, April 11th marks the annual Easter festival which is open to the whole community. Activities begin at 4pm and end at 7pm. There will be games, hot dogs and an Easter egg hunt. Come on out and bring a friend (or two)! There will be another Plants for Bibles at Swansea Baptist from 8am to 12pm Saturday morning.

April 12th is Easter Sunday. The day will begin with a community sunrise service at North Pentecostal Holiness Church at 7am. Our pastor will be the guest speaker. Sunday School at FBC North will begin at 9:45am with an Easter Resurrection Celebration service following at 11am. The adult choir will perform their Easter Cantata during this service. ** There will be NO evening services Sunday, April 12th.**

If there are any questions about any of the above mentioned items, please contact the church office. If I have overlooked something, please email me and let me know. You can contact me at nricha4903@hotmail.com.
