Easter Sunday
Pastor Marlon Smith
Pianist: Helen Timm
In their fright the women bowed to the ground,
but the men said to them,
“Why do you look for the living among the dead?
He is not here: He has risen!”
Luke 24:5-6
On Easter, we celebrate the central event of history:
the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Today, we choose to believe the Good news:
Jesus is alive! That is, indeed, Good News!
Welcome to Huron Shores Fellowship!
We are glad you are here.
