Not too much damage to my bracket last night. I’m already out of the East region. I’m a Texas homer, and picked Texas from that region. I’ve still got UCLA from the West, Florida from the Midwest, and Memphis from the South. I’m regretting a couple of those picks, but you never know.
I can’t wait for Easter. Couple of things to note:
We are having a Good Friday Communion Service on April 6, 12 p.m. and three services on Easter Sunday, 9 a.m., 10:30 a.m. and 12 p.m. The following are a few items of note for Stonecreekers.
YOUR PART IN THE MISSION
Based on the attendance patterns we've seen the past couple of years and how full the recent 11 a.m. services have been, we need help from as many people as possible to attend either the 9 a.m. or 12 p.m. service on Easter Sunday. This will help balance out the morning so hopefully all our guests can sit in the main auditorium, alleviating the need for an overflow theater at 10:30 a.m. Also, please arrive early, park at Publix, and ride the shuttle.
VOLUNTEER AT EASTER
We're asking everyone who calls Stonecreek home to serve the first two hours and attend the 12 p.m. service. Splash and Kidzu will meet only at the 9:00 and 10:30 service. We are planning special elements as a part of the 12 p.m. service and will have exclusive access for you and your family to food in our volunteer hospitality room throughout the morning. The 9 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. services are traditionally the times when newcomers and guests are going to check out Stonecreek and we need your help in making their experience the best one possible.
INVITE SOMEONE TO EASTER SERVICES
Finally, Easter Sunday is a great opportunity to reach out and invite those who are seeking a place to find out more about Christ. The mission we are engaged will only go as far as our ability to invite others. We’re launching a new series, Life In Suburbia. Easter’s topic will be Successful in Suburbia.
We're planning this Easter to be like no other Easter. Thank you again for your help in making the upcoming Easter services at Stonecreek a time when we will truly see our mission of connecting with people and bringing them closer to a relationship with Christ come to life.
