“In accordance with the Scriptures”
Tomorrow Rev’d Chris Fallone will be helping us see how the burial and resurrection of our Lord Jesus was “in accordance with the Scriptures,” as the Nicene Creed tells us.
A week on from our wonderful Easter celebration last week, let us not forget its importance. I’ve often heard it said that every Sunday is a celebration of the resurrecton of Jesus. Yes!
It was great to see hundreds of people worshipping last Sunday! I’m looking forward to seeing many of you tomorrow at our services at 9:00 AM, 11:00 AM, and 5:00 PM.
This week the weekly news email is on the short side. Our usual weekly news email with more info will return next week. Here are the main things for you to know…
