Easter Sunday 2011...


WOW,

What an incredible Easter Sunday we had last week! The Lord brought 330 people to Living Hope as we celebrated the life of Christ and 2 year anniversary of the church. That is a record attendance and we pray just the beginning of what God has in store for the future. Thank you church for all the candy you donated and time you served, you were such a blessing to us and the kids. I am asking you to begin praying and getting ready for what could be a HUGE DAY in your life spiritually. We are going to be discussing a topic this Sunday that could potentially change the way you look at your life and everything around you...SO DON'T MISS IT!

Family Meeting...If you are a member of Living Hope Church, then you need to be there on Sunday evening, May 1st @6pm. The meeting will be held at the YMCA here in Marysville and there WILL be childcare available. We will be giving several updates as well as the future plans for the church!

Baby Reighard is Here...Hope Katherine Reighard arrived at 1:41pm on Easter Day, April 24...Weight: 7lbs 14oz...Length: 18in. Autumn and Hope are both doing great (as is Jim). Luke and Caleb enjoyed getting to meet their new little sister.

Living Hope Latest...

Hey Living Hope,

WOW, I am so excited for this coming Sunday commonly known as Palm Sunday. It is the Sunday before Easter, in which the Lord Jesus entered into Jerusalem on His way to the cross to die for us! This Sunday we finish our current series, "Vintage Jesus" as we will look at His mission found in John 19:28-30. It blows my mind all that the Lord is doing in and through Living Hope Church...be praying and inviting people to come hear the good news of Christ on Easter! We cannot wait to see you this Sunday morning, but until then check out all the new events below that you need to take the time to READ:

Family Meeting... That is right, Living Hope Church will have a membership meeting that we are asking EVERYONE who is a member to be at on Sunday evening, May 1st. It will be from 6-7pm at the YMCA here in Marysville. On the agenda will be a financial update, as well as the land/building opportunity about Karen's Event Center we have told you about. This is a CRITICAL meeting and you need to make sure you are there for this important moment in our church!

Ladies Retreat 2011... What an amazing response we had last Sunday from the ladies of Living Hope! Almost the entire first batch of tickets purchased were spoken for, so you need to sign up, pay your deposit, and make plans to attend this incredible event. Beth Moore is coming to Columbus! She will be here August 12th-13th. The total cost is $55. Tickets are limited and a deposit of $35 is required to reserve your spot. Please see Jennifer Westbrook or Wren Davis for details.

Easter Eggs... There are 3,000 EGGS ready to be stuffed with candy for our Easter service. We are are asking you to help out with the candy part. The students are going to have a egg stuffing party, but if you could help out by bringing an unopened bag of candy THIS Sunday (this is the last Sunday we have to bring them) we would appreciate it! Pastor James is leading the kids on a Resurrection Egg Hunt on the property immediately following the Easter Service.

Small Groups Leaders Meeting... Pastor Gerry will be meeting with ALL small group leaders THIS coming Sunday, April 17th @ 6pm. It will be held at his home (638 Gallop Lane) and dinner will be provided. For more info, email him at gerry@livinghopemarysville.com.
