Overflow

Good...

Night...

NURSE!

What an amazing celebration of Easter this past weekend! I was blown away by the
overwhelming number of ways God showed up so huge:

1. THANK YOU to every single one of you who invited someone to come and experience Easter. There's nothing deeper spiritually than pointing someone toward the fullness of the empty tomb.

2. THANK YOU GRANDE to everyone who selflessly attended services on Good Friday and early Easter morning. You are glad you did because you got to sit down for church! That, and the fact that you knew you had created a seat for a guest to encounter Christ.

3. What an amazing job everyone on our staff and volunteers did to communicate the essence and power of Easter. Big props to Vic Dominey for the "I Believe" scrolling text piece (we're going to post it in case you missed it).

4. Huge thanks to Jon Branch for finding and LEARNING (!?) the hammer dulcimer in a week and a half. And to all the band and worship team for taking us to the throne!

5. To all of you who gave up comfortable seats for our guests to sit down instead of standing on stairs, in the lobby and even out on the sidewalk at the last service: YOU ARE LAKE HILLS CHURCH!

Kindof funny that after overflow crowds this weekend, I'm starting a series of messages called Overflow this coming Sun. Mar. 30th. That's how Jesus describes the kind of life he died and rose again to make available to us. I hope you'll make it a priority to be there this weekend--back on our regular schedule: Sunday, 9, 10:15, and 11:45 a.m. And, hey, go ahead and bring a friend with you this weekend, too.
