Christ is risen! He is risen indeed! Alleluia! Happy Easter! May your life be shaken; may your senses be rattled; may your knees go out from under you. Jesus is alive and that changes everything! Congratulations to those receiving first communion today!
And a special thank you to our musicians, ushers, greeters, worship assistants, and to all who helped with the Easter breakfast!!! It made the morning so joyful!

Tonight, we remember Christ's commandment to love as he loved us. Tomorrow, we hear Jesus' own words from the cross and watch as light is extinguished gradually throughout the evening. Saturday, silence. We long for Sunday. We long for new life. We long for Jesus. Sunday is coming...
Join us at Bethlehem for our Holy Week services. You are welcome here.

Getting ready for First Communion. Tonight these beautiful children of God learned about the special meal Jesus gave us to share together; to receive forgiveness and remember Him. It’s all about how much Jesus loves us, so we give Jesus our full attention when we receive communion. Can’t wait for Sunday!
