BOB

Good morning! This is Bob Peden of Central - A United Methodist Community in downtown of Meridian. Easter is this Sunday, a day to celebrate Resurrection and new life; and at Central, we invite you to our celebrations at 8:30, 9:45, or 10:55 this Easter Sunday morning.

But Easter loses its true meaning without the events that happened in Jesus’ life in the days leading up to Easter. This Friday evening at 7 PM, Central will offer a service of remembrance of those events. We will begin with Holy Communion, then the choir will lead is in a remembrance of Jesus’ seven last words spoken from the cross. The service will conclude with a stripping of the sanctuary. All of the decorations of the sanctuary are removed – reminding us that we, like Jesus, must give up all that we hold dear in order to attain that resurrection gift of eternal life.

Gather with the Central community this Good Friday evening at 7, and Easter Sunday morning at 8:30, 9:45, or 10:55.
