"We invite everyone to share communion around God's altar. We strive to be a welcoming and relevant Christian community doing what matters through prayer, worship, teaching, outreach, fellowship, and service.
We will demonstrate the real life application of scripture, tradition, and reason by providing a safe place to respond to each other's needs, hurts, joys, and interests."

This Week's Anthem:
The Holy City
Solo by Larry Holbrook
|
|
Last night I lay asleeping
There came a dream so fair
I stood in old Jerusalem
Beside the temple there
I heard the children singing
And ever as they sang
Methought the voice of Angels
From Heaven in answer rang
"Jerusalem, Jerusalem!
Lift up you gates and sing
Hosanna in the highest
Hosanna to your King!"
|
|
And then methought my dream was chang'd
The streets no longer rang
Hush'd were the glad Hosannas
The little children sang
The sun grew dark with mystery
The morn was cold and chill
As the shadow of a cross arose
Upon a lonely hill
"Jerusalem, Jerusalem!
Hark! How the Angels sing
Hosanna in the highest
Hosanna to your King!"
|
|
And once again the scene was chang'd
New earth there seem'd to be
I saw the Holy City
Beside the tideless sea
The light of god was on its streets
The gates were open wide
And all who would might enter
And no one was denied
No need of moon or stars by night
Or sun to shine by day
It was the new Jerusalem
That would not pass away
"Jerusalem! Jerusalem
Sing for the night is o'er
Hosanna in the highest
Hosanna for evermore

The Women's Bible Study group is studying Barbara Brown Taylor’s book An Altar in the World.
An Altar in the World is a marvelous read and provokes thought for growing and sharing discussion. Please join us in the search for discovering the many opportunities God has provided for worshiping Him.
The usual dates are 1st and 3rd Thursdays at 5:30 p.m.; however, due to Spring Break and Holy Week, we will be meeting on Thursday, April 21 and 28 and resume 1st and 3rd Thursdays in May.
All ladies of the church are welcome!

We are grateful for the beautiful flower arrangements at the altar each Sunday. These arrangements are coordinated by the Parish Flower Guild and funded by donations in memorial, honor, or thanksgiving for a life event or friends and relatives of Resurrection. The cost for both flower arrangements is $75. Sunday flowers may be shared. Your gift of flowers will be acknowledged in the Sunday service bulletin.
