Greetings friend,

Next week brings about Debbie’s and my 20th anniversary. We have decided to celebrate all year though! God has been so very gracious and good to us over these years, and we want to be thankful for all He has done.

I return to the pulpit this Sunday with a message from our series called The King’s Ransom titled - The Imitation Invitation. God has called us to imitate Him by the way we walk in His Love, His Light, and His Wisdom. Only through walking with God, and following His example, can we truly experience the wide-open life of joy and purpose. I hope to see you this Sunday!

In a recent poll taken, 3 out of 4 non-church goers said they would attend an Easter service if they were invited by a friend or relative. This is where you come in! Inside our bulletins we’ve printed invite cards for everyone to use in order to invite a friend, neighbor, co-worker, or family member. Easter Sunday is the most-attended service of the year. What if your invitee heard the Gospel, and turned their life over to Christ as a result of you asking them to join you at RCC? You could be the catalyst for changing someone else’s eternity!

And speaking of being an Easter Sunday life-changer, Our Great Balloon Grab is one of our biggest Kidz Events of the year. Our Kidz love to come & find their balloon and then go home with plenty of goodies and memories which will bring them back the following week. But we cannot make this happen without our servants! We have servant needs throughout the week of the 14th preparing for it as well as plenty of positions on Easter Sunday. Attend one service and then serve during the other. For more info click here:

EZ SHUTTLE RIDE: Easter is our biggest weekend of the year, and I hope you’ll come to celebrate the greatest day in history with us. For your convenience, we are providing two shuttles which will run in between RCC and Eagle High School’s north-end (closest to RCC) parking lot. They’ll drop you right in front of our new worship center.

May the Lord bless you and keep you until we meet again!

Thanks for staying InTouch!
