The Prayerful Pause - April 20

My heart is still full after the wonderful experience we had together during Holy Week and Easter! The joy of Resurrection Sunday this year was so special after the last two years of pandemic Easter Celebrations. This week, let’s pause and thank God for the many blessings we have seen and experienced during Holy Week and Easter. Please join me in thanking God for:

  • The chance to welcome Thomas Peters as a new member! He will be baptized on Sunday, May 1! Praise God!

  • The amazing Easter Boxes that were shared with our neighbors in need; they were a beautiful outreach.

  • A meaningful Lenten Soup and Study that God used to draw us closer to Christ and one another.

  • A powerful Holy Week Prayer Experience that was well attended and meaningful.

  • A joyous Easter Egg Hunt filled with children and made possible by faithful volunteers and donations from the congregation.

  • A special Sunrise Service and a delicious breakfast prepared with love.

  • A glorious Easter Service at 11:00 AM that filled our hearts with joy.

  • The amazing way that the Union Family works together to accomplish ministry for the Glory of God! This is a huge praise point for me as your Pastor! Your service and teamwork is outstanding!

  • A great start to our Women’s Small Groups this week.


Indeed, we have much to be thankful for as God continues to work in us and through us each day! Please keep praying for Union during our 100 days of intentional and specific prayer for the church we love. God hears us when we pray and is already doing great things in our midst. Let’s continue asking God to guide us and use us to share His love in the world every day! Amen and Amen!
