EASTER SUNDAY - March 31st

 

High Attendance Day

 

This year, on Easter Sunday morning, we will celebrate our Lord's victory over death with one combined worship celebration at 10:30am.  

 

Our Hispanic sisters and brothers will be joining us on that day for a celebration that you will not want to miss!

 

This is an opportunity, every year, to invite unchurched neighbors, friends, coworkers, and family to join you for Sunday worship.  

 

Pray now about those who God would have you to invite.

Dear church family,  

 

It's that time of year again. Dollar by dollar, Walk MS is changing lives.  

 

That's why I am registered for the Seville Square/FLN 2013 Walk MS Pensacola event and why I'm asking you to support my fundraising efforts with a tax-deductible donation.

 

The National Multiple Sclerosis Society is dedicated to creating a world free of MS but they can't do it without all of our help. It's faster and easier than ever to support this cause.

 

Simply click the link below to visit my page and make a donation:

 

http://main.nationalmssociety.org/site/TR?pg=team&fr_id=19786&team_id=313057

 

Your donation supports critical funds to support local programs and cutting-edge research.

 

Your donation puts us closer to realizing our promise to STOP MS in its tracks, RESTORE lost function and END MS forever.  

 

Ending MS means no one will receive an MS diagnosis again.  

 

Every step matters. Every dollar counts. Every person makes a difference.

 

Please support me by making a donation.  

 

I greatly appreciate your support and will keep you posted on progress to my goal.
