Holy Week at Rock Mills

What a great Sunday of music this was.    Beth treated us with “Majesty” as a prelude and “The Old Rugged Cross” as our Offertory.  We are so very blessed to have such an accomplished pianist at our church.  Karen, and her group from the Arbor in Alex City sang, “Via Dolorosa.”  Ron’s favorite song, “Were You There” was our first congregational hymn.  There are so many wonderful Easter songs for us to do and so little time.    Bro Frank’s message came to us from Matthew 27:15 and it was simply titled: “Palm Sunday.”  We were blessed to have Mrs. Betty Jean and Mr. Larry Houze back with us today.  Ms. Betty Jean is recovering nicely.
Upcoming Events of the Church:
  • Easter Lilies can be placed at the altar next Sunday(Easter Sunday).  Let Brother Frank or Karen know who you are placing them for so they can put your name in the bulletin.
  • The Easter Egg Hunt for the children will be Saturday, April 23rd at 2:00.  Children please bring a dozen plastic or hardboiled eggs for hiding.  Come and enjoy the children and some yummy Easter snacks.
  • Easter Sunrise service will be at 6:00 A.M. on Easter Morning.  All kitchen workers need to be here by 4:30 or 5:00 to prepare breakfast.  Our regular service will be at 11:00.  There will be no night activities.
  • May 1st – Rev. Stoney Halsey will be bringing our Homecoming Message.  There will be no Sunday School and the service will begin at 10:30.  Special singing will be provided by Cedar Creek, Karen Korb, and Libby Towler.  Don’t miss this wonderful day!
