The table at the back of the fellowship hall has books and studies that pastor scott has written over the last year. There is no charge.You are welcome to as many as you would like. If you have a friend that might benefit from one, you're more than welcome to take and share. We don 't need them back, we just want to share God's love.

This Sunday we begin a new Easter season journey:
Rooted in Resurrection — Easter to Pentecost
Week 1: Fear
Resurrection Changes What Holds Us Back
After the resurrection, the disciples were not celebrating.
They were hiding.
The doors were locked.
Fear had taken hold.
And Jesus came and stood among them.
He did not rebuke them.
He did not tell them to be stronger.
He simply said, “Peace be with you.”
Fear did not stop the resurrection.
And fear does not stop Jesus from meeting us where we are.
This Sunday we begin a three-week journey: Fear
Doubt
Confusion
And how the risen Christ meets us in each one.
Join us as we move from Easter toward Pentecost,
learning together how resurrection changes what holds us back.
Peace be with you.

As we remember Good Friday Hillcrest is having prayer stations set up from 12:00 to 5:00 P.M. if you would like to participate. The church is dark, accept for the fireside room. Because we're remember the narrative, after noon it darkened. You are welcome to be part of this stay for 5 minutes or 5 hours.

The first station, he was in the middle of the room in the fellowship hall. The second station is the overturned table, close to it. And then the third station is on the couch. The fourth station has the single chair, facing the chairs and bench over by the kitchen and the final one is at the fireplace
