Sunday is Resurrection Sunday! We celebrate that Jesus was raised from the dead and the tomb where He was laid could not hold Him! The tomb is empty and He is Risen! Easter is a great time to bring a friend to church!

The Sunday after Easter will be PotLuck Sunday - when we all bring a dish to share and enjoy a "family meal" together after Sevice!

• Please sign up at the Hospitality Desk so we know how many to expect.
• Like to cook?? Let us know what dish, desert or beverage you plan to bring. (signup at Hospitality Desk)
• It is a good day to bring a friend to church!

The pantry will be relocating - details will be posted here once available. Thank you for your patience.

Apr 5: Children will start in the main room for Worship then move to KidsZone.

Come and join us as we celebrate the Risen Lord!

Please continue to:

• Pray for our Assemblies of God World Missionaries serving in areas of heavy persecution and our Nation.
• Pray for GTC - Pray we continue to mature in our discipleship, grow healthy as individuals and as a body, that we are able to bring the Gospel of Good News to our 14609 area! Jesus is LORD over Rochester (and Irondequoit and Webster and Greece and Henrietta and Spencerport and Gates and Chili and ...)!

Please also continue to pray as the Lord leads:

Mondays - Prayer for our Nation; Prayer for Revival in our Nation and our Churches; Parents and Guardians

Tuesdays - Prayer for our National Leaders; Prayer for Unity in our Churches; Children and Youth

Wednesdays - Prayer for our State Leaders; Prayer for our church leaders; Children in the Foster Care System 

Thursdays - Prayer for Your Local Leaders; Prayer for the Church's impact in their local communities; Marriages

Fridays - Prayer for our Judiciary; Prayer for more churches to be planted; wisdom dealing with the rapidly changing culture with both love and truth

Saturdays - Prayer for our Military; Prayer for future church planters, revitalization teams and missionaries; A mature church that considers how God is calling us to respond to the very things we are praying for. 

Sundays - Prayer for our Law Enforcement; Pray for Families; Prayer of Thanksgiving, praise and declaration

Stay informed - see our Community Announcements Page!

Remember to pray:

• Kind Hearts Pantry - pray the transition to a new location enables the pantry to help even more people.
• And remember to pray for one another - if you have not seen someone at church in a while, pray for them, give them a call or text - you may be the one God uses to encourage a brother or sister in Christ.
