Part 7: Life with Faith
Theme: Life with faith is so much better and more realistic than trying to control everything in our lives.  Why? You can't control everything.  The rub?  It goes against our human nature to relinquish control.  Faith/trust is the opposite of control.
Scripture: 1 John 4:9-10

Next Week's Easter Worship Message: Resurrection Changed Everything, Scripture: John 10:17-18

Stewardship Thoughts: Florida Advance
Growth is a good thing.  In the period from 1863 to 1900, the Seventh-day Adventist Church experienced dramatic growth.  The year 1863 is the year when the church was officially organized into 6 conferences with 30 evangelistic staff, all of which were located in the northeastern quarter of the United States.  By 1900 there were 45 local conferences and 42 mission, with 1,500 evangelistic staff spread around the world.  The church had 24 medical institutions and 464 Adventist schools, with an enrollment of 11,145.  In addition to the health and educational institutions, there were also many publishing houses that had begun operating around the world.  God was able to bless as people organized to work together for others (Nix, Passion, Purpose & Power, pp. 98-102). Today we have the privilege of supporting our conference and union with our offerings.  Let's continue the tradition of organizing for service!

Easter Sabbath Praise and Worship Service

Make sure to come and be part of a special Easter Praise and Worship service, April 4, as we celebrate our Lord's sacrifice in order to save you and me. We will hold a special meet and greet fellowship time from 10:30-10:55. Common Cause will provide a full service of congregational praise, starting at 10:45, as Pastor Phil shares with us how the resurrection released hope, hope that called people to die: die to selfishness and sin and fear and greed; die to the lesser self so that a greater self might be born. Jesus called it "Born again."This will be a great service to bring friends and families that do not typically attend church. Come! Praise the Lord for His Love and Mercy!

Breakfast in the Park

Naples SDA Church has adopted the Breakfast in the Park Ministry that minister to approximately 50 people each week as they serve breakfast, which for some, is the only meal they get that day.  Every week, members spend their Sunday morning developing relationships with those in great need, most are homeless, and some travel by foot and bicycle in order to fellowship together.  We NEED your help.  Come and serve the least of these, as God has commanded. If you can't serve, volunteer to make food.  There are so many ways you can help make a difference in someone's life by showing God's love through caring. See Todd or Tracy Fitts for more information.  

eGiving
If you have set up an account on the Naples SDA Church's website for use of the eGiving service, you will be able to log into your account by either downloading the eGiving app or by going to www.eGiving.com and clicking the ST button in the top right hand corner.  You will then be able to put in your login information and access your account information and make donations.
