Mid Week Manna Meal

Tonight, April 9 at 5:30 pm

Mid Week Manna Extended Pot Luck Meal 

In remembrance that Jesus had a long last meal with his friends before his Passion, we too want to just share a good meal together. The church will provide ham for dinner prepared by Brian Johnson. Please bring a side dish or dessert to share. 

All ages will enjoy an extended meal together. There will be no organized lesson, just quality time as a group! A family art project will also be offered.

Stations of the Cross

This Evening

Join us at 5:00 pm in the church for Stations of the Cross. This will be our last Wednesday Stations walk this Lenten season.

Good Friday Stations of the Cross

Readers Needed

We will walk the outdoor Stations of the Cross on Good Friday, April 18 at 5:00 pm. Using the We Were There: A Way of the Cross program, each station will require two readers - a presider and a main reader. Please call the office to sign up! (850) 433-0074.

The Stations readings can be found here.

Easter Flowers

We are accepting names to be listed in the Easter bulletin, in honor of or in memory of someone you choose. Please call the office to submit names Monday - Thursday 8:00 am - 3:30 pm. You may also email Jessica Boyd communications@scpen.org. All names should be submitted by Monday, April 14th at 3:30 pm. Please include your name and the full spelling of the name you'd like listed. Monetary donations will be accepted. 

Flowering the Cross

On Easter Sunday, please bring flowers to ‘flower the cross”. We will have a cross in front of the church for both services and you may add your flowers when you arrive for services. For the 10:30 am service, we will process the cross in for all to enjoy! 

Easter Eggs

We are accepting donations of pre-filled plastic eggs and candy for our annual Easter Egg Hunt, held Easter Sunday after the 10:30 am service. Donations may be dropped off in the church office Monday - Thursday 8:00 am - 3:30 pm, or on Saturdays / Sundays. (If possible, please provide candy that will not melt! Thank you!)

Women's Retreat

Deposit Due

If you have not yet paid your $50 deposit for Women's Retreat, please do so this week. With your deposit paid, this reserves your spot. We are moving down the waitlist. Final balances are due Easter Sunday, April 20.

Children's Ministry

Tonight's Manna will be a fun intergenerational dinner gathering in the Parish Hall. We will have a few fun Easter-themed crafts for anyone who wants to take part. This is our last Manna of the year so please try to come.

This Sunday, April 13th, we will continue The Faces of Easter series with The Faces Of Easter 6. The children are walking through Lent in Godly Play just as the adults are in Faith Forum, Manna, and church. These stories are beautiful. We hope you will join us. Check out the links below if you'd like to watch the YouTube video and/or read a summary of this week's story.
