   03-31-24       Sun        Easter Sunday Sunrise Service (Pam Davis)

Sent 2024-03-29: Easter Sunday Sunrise Service - 

This Sunday, March 31st, our Easter Service will be at the Gazebo beginning at 8:00am. Pastor Larry Allen will be delivering the message. 

The program is as follows:

 

ORDER OF SERVICE

Prelude – Linda Watson

Welcome & Prayer – Pastor Larry Allen

Hymn – One Day

Lord’s Prayer

Hymn – Christ the Lord is Risen Today

Message – Pastor Larry

Hymn – Christ Arose
 

THE LORD’S PRAYER

Our Father,

which art in heaven,

Hallowed be thy Name.

Thy Kingdom come.

Thy will be done

in earth, As it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our trespasses,

As we forgive them that trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation,

 But deliver us from evil.

For thine is the kingdom,

The power,

and the glory,

For ever.

Amen.

 

ONE DAY

One day when Hea­ven was filled with His praises,

One day when sin was as black as could be,

Jesus came forth to be born of a virgin,

Dwelt among men, my example is He!

 

Refrain

Living, He loved me; dying, He saved me;

Buried, He carried my sins far away;

Rising, He justified freely for­ev­er;

One day He’s coming—O glo­ri­ous day!

 

One day they led Him up Calvary’s mountain,

One day they nailed Him to die on the tree;

Suffering anguish, despised and rejected:

Bearing our sins, my Re­deem­er is He!

Refrain

 

One day they left Him alone in the garden,

One day He rested, from suffering free;

Angels came down o’er His tomb to keep vigil;

Hope of the hopeless, my Sav­ior is He!

Refrain

 

One day the grave could conceal Him no longer,

One day the stone rolled away from the door;

Then He arose, over death He had conquered;

Now is as­cend­ed, my Lord ev­er­more!

Refrain

 

One day the trumpet will sound for His coming,

One day the skies with His glories will shine;

Wonderful day, my belovèd ones bringing;

Glorious Sav­ior, this Je­sus is mine!

Refrain

 

CHRIST THE LORD IS RISEN TODAY

Christ the Lord is ris­en to­day, Al­le­lu­ia!

Sons of men and an­gels say, Al­le­lu­ia!

Raise your joys and tri­umphs high, Al­le­lu­ia!

Sing ye heav’ns, and earth re­ply, Al­le­lu­ia!

 

Lives again our glo­ri­ous king, Al­le­lu­ia!

Where, O death, is now thy sting? Al­le­lu­ia!

Dying once He all doth save, Al­le­lu­ia!*

Where thy vic­to­ry, O grave? Al­le­lu­ia!

 

Love’s re­deem­ing work is done, Al­le­lu­ia!

Fought the fight, the bat­tle won, Al­le­lu­ia!

Lo! Our sun’s eclipse is o’er, Al­le­lu­ia!

Lo! He sets in blood no more, Al­le­lu­ia!

 

 

CHRIST AROSE

Low in the grave He lay

Jesus my Savior!

Waiting the coming day

Jesus my Lord!

 

Up from the grave He arose

With a mighty triumph o'er His foes

He arose a Victor from the dark domain

And He lives forever with His saints to reign

He arose! (He arose)

He arose! (He arose)

Hallelujah! Christ arose!

 

Death cannot keep his prey

Jesus, my Savior!

He tore the bars away

Jesus my Lord!

CHORUS

Casino Night is Friday, February 2nd and this is a major fund-raising event for the Sunshine community. We are in the planning stage of this event and are looking to the residents to help us out in making this event a huge success. So while you are doing some Christmas shopping maybe you could pick up a gift card to your favorite restaurant or business, donate a service, purchase or make a gift basket or make an item or pick up something new that you think would make a great raffle prize.

 

We are also doing something new this year - we are trying to get more table sponsors within our community. Someone from your street will be knocking on your door to ask if you would donate $10 toward being a Street Sponsor. It costs $100 per table per sponsor, but if ten people go in on one street, then we have a new table sponsor! Throughout the evening of Casino Night the sponsors will be announced and everyone sitting at that table will receive extra chips. So if someone comes knocking at your door - it is your neighbor asking you to contribute toward sponsoring a gaming table for Casino Night!

 

Thanks for your contributions!

The Women’s Club is having a Chili Cook-Off on Saturday, November 4th in Retzlaff Hall. The doors will open at 3:45 for those making chili and at 4PM for everyone attending. We will start eating around 4:30. The cost will be $5 per person for this event (pay at the door).

We will have two (2) signup sheets in the Library. One for the chili competitors (anyone making chili, feel free to decorate your crockpots) and the second signup sheet will be for cornbread makers. There is no need for others to sign up.

The Women’s Club will provide diced onions, jalapeños, sour cream, crackers, corn chips, cheese, butter, coffee, tea, and water. Please BYOB. We will be selling ice cream sandwiches for dessert.

The chili will be judged by three (3) outside judges. We are hoping to have three (3) firefighters or police officers attend. So, please let us know if you have a volunteer in mind. There will be prizes for 1st, 2nd, 3rd place and for whackiest chili. The winners will be announced around 5PM.

We will have a “Share the Wealth” and we’ll be selling tickets and having drawings throughout the event.

There will be music, dancing, games with prizes and LOTS OF FUN!

Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns. We hope to see you there!

Hello neighbors! Due to a lack of interest in having a shrimp boil it has been changed to a chili cook off. It will be on November 4th. Details are still being ironed out. I will email time and other specifics as they are relayed to me.

Halloween Golf Cart parade Saturday Oct 28th

Lineup in front of the office at 3:30 to 4pm 

 

We will be trick-or-treating for food for the needy. Any dry goods > can goods > paper products > health > care products > glasses / readers  as we did last year. Last year was so much fun and had a lot of great donations! If you can be out we will collect your stuff from you or just set your stuff at the end of your driveway and we will pick it up. One more option is - there is a Halloween party this year at the hall and you can just bring it there. There is such need in our community and this is our small way we can all help Branden Freeland the minister that did our wonderful Easter service this year at the gazebo. His ministry will be the recipients of our donations. I hope to have him as our guest at the Halloween party. So let’s show him what a generous, caring community we are. Hope to see you all there!!
