 Sunday May 23, 2010 – 2:00 pm – Escalon Presbyterian Church – 1612 1st Street – Escalon

 You are special to our graduates and we hope you can attend this celebration.  This will be a time of reflection and encouragement led by the graduating students.

 “Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess,for He who promised is faithful.” Hebrews 10:23

The purpose behind the triumphal entry was to communicate that Christ was indeed the promised Messiah, the King of the Jews and by extension, the King of the Universe.

“…A very large crowd spread their cloaks on the road, while others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road. The crowds that went ahead of him and those that followed shouted, “Hosanna to the Son of David!”  “Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!”  “Hosanna in the highest!”  When Jesus entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred and asked, “Who is this?”  The crowds answered, “This is Jesus, the prophet from Nazareth in Galilee.”  Matthew 21:8-11

Holy Week starts with the triumphant entry of Jesus!  The music for worship on Palm Sunday is regal and celebratory.  The city of Jerusalem welcomed the “Royal Son of David” and their “Redeemer King”, truly the hope of Israel.  Our worship will join the celebration, as our children process with palms to welcome Jesus.

 As we begin Holy Week on Sunday March 28, 2010, we invite you to come and worship with us.

The New Service: 

The Session of the Church (our governing board) made this decision in order to accommodate for the growing number of people that have been attending our holiday services.  We do not want any attender on Easter morning - whether a long-time member of this church, or a first-time visitor – to not have a seat in our service of worship.  Easter morning is a special time for family and friends – but more importantly, it is a morning to hear the good news of Jesus Christ as we celebrate the historical truth of Jesus’ Resurrection from the dead and what that means for our lives.

We all believe that the ideal would be to worship together in one service, but our facilities simply cannot accommodate that reality on these special services, and packing people together is starting to become uncomfortable.  Again, our desire is that everyone who comes would have a seat and an opportunity to meet God that Sunday morning.  We ask that a number of you consider attending our new 9:00 Easter morning service, inviting your family and friends to join you at that time.  If this were done, we would have two comfortable yet fairly full services – with room for late arrivers.  Both services will be identical in terms of the Order of Worship.

Pancake Breakfast:

Our pancake breakfast will still be held at 8:00 am, so those attending the first service could come, eat and join us in worship at 9:00.  Those attending the second service and joining us for breakfast could attending the second hour of the meal, from 9:00 to 10:00 and join us for worship at 10:30.  There will be a half-hour time between services where attenders of either service can meet and greet each other on the outside patio.  Consider this a time of Fellowship between services!

Parking:

If you are a regular attender, please, please, consider walking just a little farther that morning – parking in the hogan parking lot, the Masonic Lodge lot, or the the old bank lot so that parking spaces around the church can be saved for visitors and seniors.

We will be advertising extensively in the coming weeks – please make plans accordingly and communicate to new visitors that Easter Morning this year will have two worship times – 9:00 am and 10:30 am.

Plot Summary:

Thirty years old and single, Beatrix Potter lives in London with her social-climbing parents, who are exasperated that she has turned down any number of eligible young men. Her only real friends are the animals which since childhood she has lovingly drawn and made up stories about. She finally succeeds in selling a book of the stories, and it becomes Norman Warne’s first project. He quickly falls in love with both the book and Beatrix and together they carefully arrange publication. This proves the first of many successes, offering her the possibility of escaping from both her parents’ way of life and London.
