Note to Parents

Kids for the Lord will not meet today to allow children the opportunity to sit with their parents and other family members in observance of Resurrection Day. We will resume our normal class schedule next week, May 1. Thank you!

Christ's passionate love for the world is evident in

His statements from the Cross:

Statement One - "Father, forgive them for they know not what they do."

Luke 23:34 - Do you realize that you are in need of the Father's forgiveness?

Statement Two - "Today you will be with Me in Paradise." Luke 23:43

Have you realized and confessed Jesus as your personal Savior?

Statement Three - "Woman, behold your son." John 19:26

Jesus is concerned for us and provides for all of us.

Statement Four - "My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?"

Matthew 27:45 - Jesus was forsaken so we don't have to be.

Statement Five - "I thirst!" John 19:28

This personal statement reminds us that Jesus is not only God, but He also was man. Jesus identifies with our needs.

Statement Six - "It is finished!" John 19:30

Jesus paid for our sins, and sin's control over our lives is broken.

Statement Seven - "Into Your hands I commit My Spirit." Luke 23:46

You can entrust our life into God's hands.
