A Last-Minute Event Reminder |

| Youth Leadership of Memphis |
Youth Leadership of Memphis is a mission program supported by Advent Church where men volunteer to help at-risk teenage boys do yard work on Saturdays each week.
We are still in need of two men to work tomorrow afternoon, Sat., April 4th. Just show up at Advent Church in Cordova at 11:45 am ready to work. Find the van and other men in the parking lot. You will be transported to the mission and return to the church around 4:30 pm. |
| Easter Lilies |
This Sunday you may still order Easter lilies. Simply tear off the completed form from the bulletin insert along with your money and place it in the offering plate. Be sure to write that this is for the Arlington campus.
You may take your lily home following Easter worship. |

Greetings!
We have a lot going on at Advent at Arlington! Much has happened in recent weeks, there are several things happening this weekend, and there is much more coming up this month. This update includes a last-minute reminder of some events. Next week you will receive another e-letter highlighting our Holy Week events, culminating with our Easter services. When you receive it, please forward this invitation to friends and neighbors who don't have a church home that they too might experience the significance and joy of this holy season.

 Welcome Home, Brown Family
Last Sunday, March 29th, Mr. Tony Brown and Cody Copeland were baptized during worship.
Then, together with the rest of their family, Mrs. Penny Brown, Robert Copeland, and Collin Brown they became Advent's newest members.
Tony is a Field Applications Engineer for Basin Water and Penny works for Varsity (cheerleading) at their headquarters. Tony has begun to play guitar with our praise team and both enjoy cycling and time with family.
The Browns have three sons:Cody is in first grade, Collin (second from right) and Robert (far right) are both in the sixth grade. All attend Arlington schools and love sports, bikes, and scooters.
The Brown's feel accepted and at home at Advent, and now Advent is their home too! |
