Love From Your Pastor

Come, everyone who thirsts, come to the waters; and he who has no money, come, buy and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. (Isaiah 55:1)

This Sunday, April 21 is Easter! We will have 2 services, 9am & 11am, with programs for children during both. There will be refreshments between the services as well! Our theme for Easter this year is “Living Hope”.  I am excited to hear two numbers from our Brownsville Gospel Choir and powerful songs of worship led by our worship team. I am speaking on Isaiah 55, “Come, All You Thirsty!” This chapter clearly and compellingly calls all people to come to Christ and be saved.

I will be challenging those that want to commit their lives to following Christ to see me after the service and pick up a short follow-up study booklet called “Living in Christ.” Pray that many will do that and commit to completing the study with a Christian friend (possibly you)!

You still have 2 days to be inviting neighbors, friends, co-workers, relatives, etc. Let’s pray that all who come to FBC this Sunday will hear the message loud and clear and respond by coming to Christ by faith! Please be praying for all aspects of the services: the message, the music, the audio/visual, the food, the parking, the ushering, the greeting, etc. If you have guests come with you, please be sure they fill out the connection card, and set the example by filling one out yourself!

Remember the Sunrise Service up on Buttercup Hill at 6:30am. Maps are available in the foyer. Celebrate the Risen Son as the sun rises over the valley!

Thank you to all who came and participated in our 4 Days of Prayer. I am so grateful for the great privilege of praying together in unity. I am praying and hoping that we will grow much stronger in this area in the days ahead. Be looking for more opportunities to join together in prayer!

4 Chair Discipling Seminar May 11, 9am–3pm @ FBC. “Jesus recognized that the people he encountered were at different stages of growth and development, and he worked to challenge each of them to the next level. In the 4 Chair Discipling Seminar, you’ll get a clear and simple picture of how to follow in Jesus’ footsteps and do the same thing.” I would love to see every one of you come and be EQUIPPED by this great training! You can register with the following link, or ask Erika to help you in the church office: DISCIPLING SEMINAR  (Scholarships are available upon request.)

Love From Your Pastor,
