April 8 Thought for Reflection
Friends in Holy Covenant,
We’re in the final preparations of setting the feast of worship over this Holy Week. We hope you’ll gather for with us for as many steps on the journey as you can – see below for the service schedule and the new sermon series beginning after Easter.
Several invitations to help celebrate this weekend:
INVITE A FRIEND.
Easter’s a great time to bring a guest to church. You can even grab brunch afterward to sweeten the deal. Visit our Facebook page to send an invitation to one or several friends. Fact: people come when they’re invited.
HELP GREET.
We generally have overflow crowds on Easter Sunday, lots of people here for the first time who don’t know our building. You can welcome them, help them find a seat, direct folks to the coffee pot, bathrooms, etc. Email Jen Banas.
SERVE DESSERT.
The Hospitality Team is preparing an extravagant dessert buffet between services. Help set up, serve, prepare. Email Paul Palmateer.
JOIN THE EASTER CHOIR.
One rehearsal only, on Thursday, April 9, 8:30-10pm (after the Holy Thursday service)
Whether you sing regularly with the choir or just want to add your voice for this day, join us for the Easter choir, which will sing at both morning services, 9:30 and 11:15, on Easter Sunday, April 12 (you are welcome to sing at just one of them). For more information, email Andrew Collins.
JOIN THE CONGREGATION.
Easter’s traditionally a time of welcoming new people into the community. Two people will be joining this week! If you’ve been waiting to join in community, now may be the time. Email Pastor Trey Hall: pastortrey@holycovenantumc.org
Grace and peace,
Pastor Trey Hall
