He is risen!

W.E. Sangster (1900-1960), a well-known pastor in England,

contracted a progressive, incur-able muscle disease. He lost the ability to move his legs,

and eventually his voice faded away. Because Sangster want-

ed to continue serving God even though he could no longer

preach, he became a prolific writer and organized prayer cells throughout England.

On Easter morning, shortly before his death, Sangster

wrote a note to his daughter in an unsteady hand. “It is terrible to wake up on East-

er morning and have no voice to shout, ‘He is ris-

en!’” he wrote. “But it would be still more terrible to have

a voice and not want to shout.”

The Week at a Glance

I’ve learned that if you’re going to pray about something, why worry? If you’re going to worry, why pray? —Unknown

A Special Note To:

Congregation

DRUMMER NEEDED: We are currently searching for an

experienced drummer who is a team player to play regularly on

Sunday mornings. Primary responsibilities would include a

9:00 AM rehearsal/run through and 11:00 AM worship. If you

are interested or know of someone who might be, please

give Randy a call.

The Mission Team has put a city,

country, and world map on the

bulletin board on the 2nd floor of

the Education building. We would

like you to take a pin and pin where

you have participated in Missions.

It does not matter if you were a

member of this church or another

church. The point of this is to see

where we have been and where we

can go. Once you look at the maps,

one can easily see there is a world

of opportunity that remains.

BIBLE QUESTION

All four gospels tell of Jesus’

resurrection, but each gives a different

list of women as the first to arrive at

the empty tomb. Which woman

appears in all four accounts?

A. Joanna

B. Mary, the mother of Jesus

C. Salome

D. Mary Magdalene

E. Mary, the mother of James

(Matt. 28:1; Mark 16:1; Luke 24:10; and

John 20:1.)

This is a little story about four people: Everybody, Somebody, Anybody and Nobody.

There was an important job to be done, and Everybody was sure that Somebody would

do it. Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it.

Somebody got angry about that because it was Everybody’s job. Everybody thought that Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn’t do it.

It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could

have done.
