Dear Church Family,

 

The Living Stones has five tickets available for anyone 50 years old or older who would like to join us on Saturday, April 5 to see “The Innocent” Easter Drama at Christian Life Assembly in Camp Hill.  Following the drama, we will eat dinner at the Peppermill Restaurant.

 

We will meet at the Church Annex and leave from there at 12:15 p.m. unless you make other plans in advance and inform me.

 

The cost of the drama is $15, and the dinner is your cost as well.

 

If you would like to attend, please inform me.  You are welcome to invite friends that are not part of our church.  The tickets are to the first five who reply.

 

May God bless you with a wonderful weekend!

 

For His Glory,

Hello Church Family,

 

Larry Russell is now being flown to York hospital as he is facing some significant heart blockages. Kathy welcomes as many prayers as possible.

 

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

SFCOG Prayer Requests

Hello again, Church Family,

 

This morning, Terry Helm went to be with his Lord and Savior. Please remember his Daughters Karen Reed & Leah Schmitz and their families in your prayers as they mourn his passing.

 

Also early this morning, Nelson Poe, the Brother of Joyce Hornbaker, went to be with Jesus. Remember Joyce & Pastor Gary and their whole family in your prayers as well.

 

 

Connie Heberlig would welcome your prayers as she is hospitalized at this time.

 

 

On this first day of Spring, let us join our hearts to remember the hope of New Life that we have in the Lord, our Good Shepherd, even as we grieve with those who face sickness and loss.

 

“For this is what the Sovereign Lord says: ‘I myself will search for my sheep and look after them. As a shepherd looks after his scattered flock when he is with them, so will I look after my sheep. I will rescue them from all the places where they were scattered on a day of clouds and darkness.’”

--Ezekiel 34:11-12

 

“I, even I, am he who comforts you.”

--Isaiah 51:12
