Christ Is Risen! He Is Risen Indeed! This is the good news we proclaim every time we gather as a church in worship, study, fellowship, and service. The new life Christ offers comes to us in good times and bad, in tears and in laughter, in grief and in hope.
Of course, this Sunday, that good news is all the more clear and bright, as we celebrate the holy day of Easter. No matter what you bring, what you feel, what you believe or doubt, the love of God seen in Christ’s redirection is for you. And for all. Alleluia! Amen!
Please bring flowers for the flowered cross at either or both services. Flowers can be placed when you first arrive or during the first hymn at the 11 am service.

Earth Day 2026: The theme for Earth Day 2026 is Our Power, Our Planet. Its application reflects current global economic, environmental, and civic conditions. In 2026, Our Power, Our Planet, refers to the role of people and communities worldwide in sustaining environmental protections that affect the cost of living, public health, infrastructure reliability, and long-term stability. Environmental conditions influence food systems, water availability, energy access, disaster risk, and economic resilience across all regions. Community participation has historically shaped these outcomes across countries and political systems. Earth Day is Wednesday, April 22nd, 2026.
