Weekly Youth Update: 3/30-4/05




The big week has arrived for our 5-on-5 Basketball Tournament! In partnership with Greater Love Baptist Church, the tournament will be in the Family Life Center of Homeland Park Baptist Church this Saturday, April 4. The tournament will begin at 8 am and lasts until about 4 pm. We hope that you come out to cheer on the participants, meet and hang out with members of our community, enjoy some activities at the church, and maybe even play!

Guys and girls interested in playing must register with their teams. Friday, April 3, from 5:00 pm – 6:30 pm. Participants must be ages 12-17 and show a valid student ID and report card. Every team member must be present. We hope to see you there!

Tonight, the youth will meet in the Loft of the Family Life Center from 6:30 pm – 7:30 pm. As the students are currently on spring break, we will have a low-key hang out time during our normal Bible study. Students wanting to come beforehand may arrive and hang out in the Family Life Center at 6:00! Join us as we have a fun time getting to know each other and having a blast!

Finally, Resurrection Sunday is this Sunday! Homeland Park Baptist Church will have a special service at the normal time, 10:30 am, in the sanctuary with Sunday School at 9:30 am! We hope to see you there!

If you have any questions about the tournament, our Wednesday night meeting, or anything else, please email at jason@homelandparkbc.org!

Confession, Reflection and The Lord's Supper

Yesterday, our church observed the ordinance of the Lord''s Supper or Communion as some call it.  Our church is blessed to have a committee that prepares this for us on every fifth Sunday.  This practice is designed to take us back in our hearts and minds to that dreadful night where Jesus sat at a table with His disciples to prepare them for His pending crucifixion .   The purpose of the Lord's Supper is not for us to go through the motions, but to remember all that Christ did for us.  His body was broken and blood was shed for the forgiveness of our sins.  Communion is a time to reflect, appreciate and give honor to Jesus for what He endured for us.

It is an expression of our love for God for all He has given us!  I encourage you to worship Him Sunday with other believers.  Whether it be with our church family or another one.  Worship corporately with those who want to do the same.  Let’s not take our worship opportunities for granted but vi...
