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.

Children's Church

Beginning Sunday, September 18th, there will be Children’s Church for children ages four years through 5th grade. The children will be dismissed during the morning worship service when the choir comes down from the choir loft. Phyllis Swaney, our Children’s Church Leader, will stand by the piano for the children.

The Wondrous Cross

Attention all! As you drive by or visit our church, take a moment to admire the beautiful cross located to the right of our main entrance. This Easter season, we'll be using this cross to commemorate the special days leading up to Jesus' glorious resurrection. Look for the color of the sash to change each day, reflecting the significance of the holy week. A big thank you to Sherry, Ann and Jimmy for making this beautiful cross possible! To God Be The Glory!
