Easter Sunday

Folks have asked if we're making a big deal of Easter at Connections.

They seem surprised when I tell them no.
But I go on to tell them that we make a big deal out of worship EVERY Sunday.

For us, it's always Easter.
I pray hard, and work hard, and listen attentively to craft a meaningful message.
The band practices and prays and practices more to present amazing music.
The Media Team works throughout the week to pull it all together.
The Drama Team (Andrew is a team of one) pours over scripts.
The Family Ministry Team makes sure everything is prepared to give kids an amazing experience.
The First Impression Team makes sure the coffee and snacks will be fresh and tasty.
The set-up team gets out of bed at the crack of dawn to make everything perfect.

For Connections, every Sunday is a celebration of the life we have in Jesus.
Every Sunday is a big deal.
Last Sunday is in the past.
Next Sunday isn't promised.
All we have is THIS SUNDAY.
And THIS SUNDAY is going to be the best service ever!

So this Sunday come and worship.
This Sunday bring a friend.
This Sunday all first time visitors will receive a Connections Bag with a CD and information packet.

So yeah, maybe we do have something special planned for Easter. And maybe God does too.
