Cassie Evans, Jeanne Stephens, Janet McEowen, Eric Markinson, Robert McWilliams
Call to Worship: Emily Clark
Don’t weep! Don’t mourn! There is Good News!
Christ the Lord is risen today!
Put away your garments of mourning; let the light of God’s love flood into your lives.
Christ the Lord is risen today!
No more do we have to fear the darkness; it has been overcome by God’s light.
Christ the Lord is risen today. ALLELUIA!
Children’s Message Davis Rhodes
Hymn: Christ the Lord Is Risen Today UMH 302
1. Christ the Lord is risen today, Alleluia!
Earth and heaven in chorus say, Alleluia!
Raise your joys and triumphs high, Alleluia!
Sing, ye heavens, and earth reply, Alleluia!
2. Love's redeeming work is done, Alleluia!
Fought the fight, the battle won, Alleluia!
Death in vain forbids him rise, Alleluia!
Christ has opened paradise, Alleluia!
6. King of glory, soul of bliss, Alleluia!
Everlasting life is this, Alleluia!
Thee to know, thy power to prove, Alleluia!
Thus to sing, and thus to love, Alleluia!

Each petition: “Lord...” All Respond: Hear Our Prayers
Our Father, which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy Name.
Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, As it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses,
As we forgive those that trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom,
The power, and the glory, forever. Amen
