Sunday Announcements – April 9, 2017
- Holy Week offering: It is Restoration’s custom Maundy Thursday through Easter to donate all of our offerings to a cause or partner that is doing something vital in the Kingdom of God. This year, we’re giving our offerings to Restoration Immigration Legal Aid (RILA). We are honored to support this ministry and invite you to give generously.
- Want to get connected? Small Group sign up starts today. It’s what we do. Sign-ups are at restorationarlington.org.
- Starting Easter Sunday, we will spend 7 weeks following the “Explore God” series. We hope that every person at Restoration will bring a friend to ask hard questions and hear winsome teaching. We would love many people to come to know Jesus. This takes LOTS OF PRAYER. Will you join our prayer wall? Will you add your friends name to be prayed for? SIGN UP for one hour of prayer at restorationarlington.org/exploregodprayer
- APEX will not be meeting this evening or next weekend.
- Be Still and Know. Busy? Take time to BE STILL AND KNOW. Need some time and space to hear from the Lord? Join us on Wednesday, April 19 at 7:30pm for a time of silent, contemplative prayer. Bring a Bible, journal, blanket/jacket and an expectant heart.
