Celebration Midweek - March 26

3 Key words to remember for today: Keep pressing on!  "Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me." (Philippians 3:12)

1. Easter Flowers - Order your tulips, lilies and hyacinths to decorate church on Easter Sunday. They are $7.00 each and can be taken home after the service. There is a signup sheet on the Information Booth, order is due this Sunday, March 30th. 

2. New Websites - Our last church website was hacked! Argh! So we created a new one. YAY!  Check it out at www.celebrationmuskegon.org. We also created a new Facebook website. Follow the following link (Check us out on Facebook!) and "LIKE" the page. That way you will automatically get information from the Church's page on your FB page.

3. Sunday - Ready for the mirror of self reflection? James says, "Faith without works is dead." What does that mean for your faith? (James 2:14-26)
