News and Notes for Sunday April 24, 2011

Sacred Acts – Baptism: This Easter Sunday at the 7:30 AM service, David Michael Lamberson, son of Michael and Kathleen (nee Vossler) Lamberson, will be raised to a new life as a child of God through Baptism. David’s Godparents are Scott and Kelly Vossler. It is our sincere prayer that as David grows in years, he be brought up in the Lord and remain in fellowship with the church so that by the power of the Holy Spirit, he may remain steadfast in the faith all the days of his life that Jesus is his Savior from sin and death.

Bible Stick Update: Five white Bible sticks were purchased to go directly to Jim Helms in Iraq. An additional $405.00 was sent to Faith Comes By Hearing for the purchase of the black Bible Sticks that will be distributed to chaplains in the armed forces for dispersal to the troops. Another donation of $50 was recently received and will be sent along. The original sample Bible Stick that was received from the organization will be in the church office and may be borrowed by congregational members. Please talk to Deb during office hours if you would like to borrow it.

The Lenten Banner “Given For You” focuses on the ultimate gift of God for the world’s redemption: His own Son on the cross. Jesus’ body and blood “given for you”. The story of the two thieves; the one tied in faith to Jesus Christ and receiving the gift of life, the other isolated in his unbelief “told” in the arrangement of the three crosses. The promise of Easter, of death being unable to hold Christ or us, foreshadowed by the Easter lily in the ground.
