Revised Common Lectionary Readings for Sunday, April 1, 2012, Palm Sunday (Passion Sunday) (Year B)
This week's Gospel reminds us, "Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord." One way you can be both a blessing, and blessed, is to serve your church during Holy Week. - Maundy Thursday - Let Dil know if you will be attending service so that Doris can order the right amount from Mediterranean Grill.
- Good Friday - 5 Minute Worship - Time to put our Radical Hospitality and Risk Taking Mission to use. We need people to: welcome, pray, bless, and invite! This drive-through worship is going to be fun and fruitful! We will welcome drivers to Memorial Drive and send them to the prayer station where we will pray for their needs. From there to receive a blessing and finally a gift bag with our mug and a personal invitation to join us in worship on Easter Sunday! Worship times 12 and 6. Orientation fifteen minutes before worship.
-
Holy Saturday - We need greeters and hosts between 8am - 2pm for the Teen Safety Awareness hosted by Team Edge/LoveFromAfar. This is an excellent evangelism opportunity to invite over 200 kids and their families to join us in worship on Easter Sunday!
Come in the name of the Lord, serve the community and help us grow as a congregation.
Peace of Christ Always,
George

Be Interested in Others
We must take an interest in others, build relationships, and display the radical hospitality Christ calls us to share with others. When we really listen, we learn all kinds of interesting things: Butch speaks fluent Spanish, Carl runs marathons, Marva plays tennis, Kenna likes Braves baseball, Bernice is driving, Doris and Gloria take mystery tours, and coach Brian lost a basketball three-point contest to his son. Be interested in others. It is how we build a strong congregation.
A New MDPC Blog has been created for you to share your stories. Enjoy reading them at http://mdpcga.blogspot.com/. We encourage you to submit your stories to dilpremji@aol.com which will then be posted to the blog.
