Pastors Corner

April 2026

As we come into the month of April there are a few things I would like to remind us of as a Church family.

Easter week is almost upon us a Glorious week of celebrating God’s love shown to us through the death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ.

On Thursday we will celebrate a special service we call Maundy Thursday which comes from the old French mande, which comes from the Latin mandatum novum, a new commandment associated with John 13: 34: “ A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you.” This service will be held in the evening at 7:00pm in Morgan Hall. Special music and readings and the celebrating of Holy communion will take place, please attend if you are able, you will be Blessed!

On Friday at noon we will come together to have a Good Friday service where there will be music and a message that will remind us of the great sacrifice that was made for us so that we could receive forgiveness of sins and hope of eternal life to come. There will also be an opportunity for those who would like to gather for a bring your own lunch and watch a movie about the life of our Savior Jesus!

Easter Sunday we will gather at 9:00 am for a continental breakfast put on by the session board in Morgan Hall and then our Easter Service will happen at 10:30am in the  Sanctuary with our choir singing, an Easter message and communion. Let all of us be encouraged to invite a friend, family member or neighbor to this great service!

This month’s coffee hour at the parsonage on Thursday, April 9th at 10:00am will feature home made waffles made by your Pastor and toppings that you will be encouraged to bring with you if you plan to attend. A great time to enjoy some fellowship with one another.

Lastly I would love to invite all those who can make it to a special service on Thursday, April 30 at 7:00pm at Princeton Evangelical Covenant Church. I will be attending a Central Conference minister’s gathering at the Church both Thursday and Friday morning and the service on Thursday night is open to all Churches who have a covenant Pastor which is us and it would be a blessing if some of you would attend the service with me. I will have a sign up sheet posted in the Narthex for those interested to sign up.

Praying that we all have an enjoyable Easter and month of April!

God Bless

Pastor Mark
