This week: Sabbath, Happy Birthday to everyone born in the month of April!! May God bless you and those you love in the year ahead. McGhee Family Easter Egg Hunt is this Sunday morning, April 4. Everyone is invited to join them at Hey Kids! This Sabbath, following the children's story at 2nd service, you are invited to the fellowship hall for an Easter story, an Easter craft and a special Easter surprise. Hope to see you there! A poem written by one of our members, Marilyn Thomas, to remind us of Jesus' gift to us at Easter and always: He Paid the Price For some being saved seems a mystery An apparent profound perplexity. When by the Bible we've been taught That it's a gift that can't be bought. And yet we struggle deep within, Thinking His love we need to win When He's been waiting all along For us to ask Him to belong. But oh! How easy it would be To choose to live eternally! A change of heart we will receive And all we need is to believe That there upon the cross He died Paid the price and purified Us so we could go to heaven And for our sins His life was given. Then oh! How easy it would be To choose to live eternally! No special deeds for us to do But our lives will start anew As into our lives He will enter. Around His love our lives will center. Then our strife will disappear. From love we'll labor and not from fear. Then He will burst with joy and pride To have us walking by His side. And oh! How easy it would be To choose to live eternally. Our April fellowship luncheon has been cancelled due to the JCi2 event being held next Sabbath.
