Panthers Sign Jay Cutler! Yipeeeee

For all you non-football fans.....Jay Cutler is the current QB for the Denver Broncos who asked to be traded. He is very good young QB. For all you football fans who knew that...I am only kidding! April's Fool Day!

A fact that is not an April Fools Joke is Team Kid and Pursuit start back tonight!

A fact that is not an April Fools Joke is that we are having larger attendance than ever before and we need many of you to help with our parking challenges. This is especially true for second service. If you are here for two services we need for you to park in the upper grass temporary parking area, the warehouse parking across the street (for those reading who are wondering....we do have permission from the businesses there) or please make sure you park in our far back right lot. Thanks!

A fact that is not an April Fools Joke is that we are looking at style of seats and the cost to complete our balcony. Please be praying that we can very soon make this a reality.

A fact that is not an April Fools joke is that our septic/sewer system is working again. So come Sunday ready to drink all the coffee you want!

A fact that is not an April Fools joke is that Christa, our awesome preschool director, is redecorating each room to make them look more fun and creative for Sunday morning. IKEA is a great place!

A fact that is not an April Fools Joke is that our great Kid's pastor has 70 people signed up for his Parenting Home Team called Graced Based Parenting. This video and group discussion led series will take place on Thursday nights in the main auditorium.

A fact that is not an April Fools Joke is that next week on Easter we officially launch Team Church Lancaster County. We mailed out over 25k mailers to the area. Volunteer teams are passing out Easter Egg Hunt invitations door to door in some neighborhoods. Next Saturday we will have another HUGE service project there as we have an Easter Egg hunt, games and jump castles for the kids and plenty of free food! It is a great way to let that area know we are starting a new church! Steve Miller the Campus Teaching Pastor and Scott Whaley the small groups and spiritual Development pastor have the troops there fired up and ready to go!


A fact that is not an April Fools Joke is that Team Church impacting our city and beyond in amazing and impacting ways. Great Job!



“Yes, I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who remain in me, and I in them, will produce much fruit. For apart from me you can do nothing. Anyone who does not remain in me is thrown away like a useless branch and withers. Such branches are gathered into a pile to be burned. But if you remain in me and my words remain in you, you may ask for anything you want, and it will be granted! When you produce much fruit, you are my true disciples. This brings great glory to my Father."

John 15:5-8
