Easter stuff and the next series

During Lent I've been preaching a series in 1 Corinthians looking at Paul's major themes in that book. Come Palm Sunday things are gonna change again. Palm Sunday's worship service is going to be highly liturgical. We will have a responsive opening liturgy and all the responses for communion will be sung. This is very different from our regular service, a change just for the experiece.
On Palm sunday evening the Hancock's Bridge church will be hosting a viewing of Mel Gibson's "Passion" movie followed by a discussion of the film with Rev. Emil Winkelspecht and myself. If you cannot make that viewing we will be hosting a second one at the Alloway UMC on Holy Thursday. Both viewings will begin at 6PM.
Easter sunrise service will be at the LAC softball field at 6AM Easter Sunday and our regular Easter resurrection celebrations will be at Hancock's Bridge at 9:30AM and at Quinton at 11AM.
Beginning on Sunday April 15 I will commence a new series of sermons that I hope many will find interesting and engaging. This series will be focused on family issues and how the Bible helps us to address those issues. The series will last ten weeks and will include special messages on Mother's Day and Father's Day. Topics that will be included in the series include "Keeping God in your Marriage," "Raising Godly Children," "Teens, God and Myspace," and "There's a Death in the Family God, Now What?" Please join us at either church for this series. Grace and Peace.
