Happy Thursday!  I hope you have thawed out and your outdoor plants survived the freeze this week.  Thank God it will be very short lived, as I shared in my personal blog, It's Temporary!   Pastor Troy started to dig into Acts as he continued with the sermon series, ACTS - Power for the Last Days .  If you've missed the first two in the series, or may be out of town in the next several weeks, you can always catch up on our YouTube channel. Wednesday, April 28, the Young at Heart Luncheon is back!  All who are 50 and older are invited to join others for some old songs, timely devotionals, and of course food!  The event starts at 11 AM and is held in the Fellowship Hall.  If you have any questions, see Pastor Mark. There are lots of events coming up in May: And don't forget we still need volunteers to help with VBS in June.  If you'd like to help you can sign up HERE .

Hope you've been enjoying the beautiful weather this week! This past weekend we experienced one of the best Easters in a LONG time!  On Saturday, we had over 150 kids with parents and grandparents come to our Easter Egg Hunt.  Then on Sunday we had well over 400 people join us for in-person Easter services.  It was so good to see our sanctuary full again!  I hope you were one of those able to attend, but if not you'll want to watch Pastor Troy's sermon, Hope Unveiled .  You can find the recordings of our live-stream on our YouTube channel. Tonight, join us for First Wednesday at 6:30 PM in the sanctuary for a time of praise and prayer with your ALCC family! Men, don't forget - the Men's Breakfast is this Saturday morning at 8:30 AM.  It's a good meal and you'll hear a great message from the speaker, David Heal.

This past Sunday, Pastor Mark Short preached a timely message in which he gave this great advice: "The enemy will fight you constantly to make you live condemned by the things you've done in the past that Jesus forgave the moment you asked Him to.  Don't carry the weight that Jesus already paid the price for."   If you missed it, find the recording of our livestream on our YouTube channel. Join us this week for Palm Sunday as we prepare for the Best Easter Ever !
