Join us for Easter Sunday

A place of blessing

Luke 24:36-53

36 While they were talking about this, Jesus himself stood among them and said to them, “Peace be with you.” 37 They were startled and terrified, and thought that they were seeing a ghost. 38 He said to them, “Why are you frightened, and why do doubts arise in your hearts? 39 Look at my hands and my feet; see that it is I myself. Touch me and see; for a ghost does not have flesh and bones as you see that I have.” 40 And when he had said this, he showed them his hands and his feet. 41 While in their joy they were disbelieving and still wondering, he said to them, “Have you anything here to eat?” 42 They gave him a piece of broiled fish, 43 and he took it and ate in their presence. 44 Then he said to them, “These are my words that I spoke to you while I was still with you—that everything written about me in the law of Moses, the prophets, and the psalms must be fulfilled.” 45 Then he opened their minds to understand the scriptures, 46 and he said to them, “Thus it is written, that the Messiah is to suffer and to rise from the dead on the third day, 47 and that repentance and forgiveness of sins is to be proclaimed in his name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem. 48 You are witnesses of these things. 49 And see, I am sending upon you what my Father promised; so stay here in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high.” 50 Then he led them out as far as Bethany, and, lifting up his hands, he blessed them. 51 While he was blessing them, he withdrew from them and was carried up into heaven. 52 And they worshiped him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy; 53 and they were continually in the temple blessing God.

A Special Invitation

-Has this year's Lenten journey been particularly meaningful for you?

-Have you felt the Spirit's nudge to renew your faith?

-Have you been participating in our community for a while now - and are ready to take the next step?

This Sunday, as we celebrate the commitment of this year's Seekers, both services will feature a moment of invitation - an opportunity to make your own faith commitment. We invite you to be in prayer about taking your own next step - whether that be renewing your faith, pursuing baptism, or officially joining as a member of Tapestry.

Easter Offering

The Easter Offering supports several of the general ministries of the Christian Church. Your gift supports college students in leadership development programs, global mission partners, health and social service ministries, the formation of new congregations, support for pastors and chaplains, and so much more.

Tapestry Summer Opportunities 2022

April 24th - Camp Sunday!

Join us next Sunday for special camp themed services and special guest preacher, Cheryl Russell.

Scripture is filled with stories of people experiencing God in the beauty and power of Creation. For thousands of years, God’s people have looked at the world around them to learn about God’s presence in their life. Camps are designed to bring children and youth into the beauty of creation and into the power of community. As always, scholarships are available upon request. Tapestry can help offset costs for children and youth for 50% to 100%.

High School Camp is one of the most important events of the summer. For a full week, high school students from across Indiana gather to build a caring Christian community of lasting friendships, where together they learn about God, Christ, the Bible, themselves, and how to live out their faith.

Middle School – July 11-16 (completed grades 6-8)
