Early Warning: Palm Sunday

Just a note to let everybody know that both Palm Sunday and Easter are going to be watershed moments for our church this year.  Easter will be about music and celebration...showing who we are.  We have a surprise or two in store!  Palm Sunday will be the beginning of charting our new course forward together.  We're going to talk about some things in the sermon that will be vital to our future.  I hope you already have your calendars marked but in case you don't, you should!

We're getting great attendance on Wednesday Nights but our Sunday attendance was down to 60 or so last week, including kids.  That's not horrible but it looks sparse in the massive sanctuary of St. John's.  People are busy but do remember your participation in worship uplifts us all.  It's important!

Also Theology on Tap folks, don't forget that we're meeting March 31st instead of the week following, due to Easter.  We'll be back at Phyllis Kanikkeberg's place this time!

Last thing:  I've run out of e-mail questions to answer here on the blog!  If you have a question about God, church, the Bible, faith, or life in general that we can chew over, send it to me.  I've got a neat series in mind about the most vexing misconceptions about faith but it's rather involved so I need to wait until after Easter to start it.  Anything you have now would help get us through!
