Giving Financially
God tells us in 2 Corinthians 9:6–7, "The point is this: whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver."
You can give in person, by mail, or online.

Memory Verse for
April
1 Corinthians 15:3–4
“For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ
died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, that he was buried, that
he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures,”
Reading of
Scripture
Matthew 28:1-10
Now after the Sabbath, toward the dawn of the first day of the week, Mary
Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the tomb. 2 And
behold, there was a great earthquake, for an angel of the Lord descended
from heaven and came and rolled back the stone and sat on it. 3 His
appearance was like lightning, and his clothing white as snow. 4 And
for fear of him the guards trembled and became like dead men. 5 But
the angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus
who was crucified. 6 He is not here, for he has
risen, as he said. Come, see the place where he lay. 7 Then
go quickly and tell his disciples that he has risen from the dead, and
behold, he is going before you to Galilee; there you will see him. See, I
have told you.” 8 So they departed quickly from the
tomb with fear and great joy, and ran to tell his disciples. 9 And
behold, Jesus met them and said, “Greetings!” And they came up
and took hold of his feet and worshiped him. 10 Then
Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid; go and tell my brothers
to go to Galilee, and there they will see
me.”
Hymn
“How Deep The Fathers Love for Us”
The Apostles’ Creed
I believe in God, the Father Almighty; the Maker of heaven and earth,
and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord. Who was conceived by the Holy
Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified,
dead, and buried; he descended into hell. The third day he rose
again from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and sits on the right hand of God
the Father Almighty from thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic church, the communion of
saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life
everlasting. Amen.
Returning God’s Tithes
and Offerings
“Do not lay up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust
destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But lay up for yourselves
treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do
not break in or steal; for where your treasure is, there will your heart be
also.” Matthew 6:19-21

Sermon Notes
“The
Resurrection”
Mark 16:1-8
Pew Bible Pg. #853
When the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices, so that they might go and anoint him. 2 And very early on the first day of the week, when the sun had risen, they went to the tomb. 3 And they were saying to one another, “Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance of the tomb?” 4 And looking up, they saw that the stone had been rolled back—it was very large. 5 And entering the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, dressed in a white robe, and they were alarmed. 6 And he said to them, “Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He has risen; he is not here. See the place where they laid him. 7 But go, tell his disciples and Peter that he is going before you to Galilee. There you will see him, just as he told you.” 8 And they went out and fled from the tomb, for trembling and astonishment had seized them, and they said nothing to anyone, for they were afraid.
