Weekly Check-In - April 4, 2026
The season of Lent, culminating in Holy Week, and leading us to Easter is a wonderfully meaningful part of the church year. In Holy Week itself, so much is happening and being remembered. Maundy Thursday worship and Good Friday worship have bridged the distance between Palm Sunday and the Empty Tomb. We wait this Holy Saturday for tomorrow and for the opportunity to celebrate Christ's victory over death.
Thank you to all the Hebron folks who prepared food for the Good Friday Community Holy Week Service lunch. It was all great. Thanks to the great group who showed up to help bring down Yard Sale stuff from upstairs in the Activities Building and to carry in several loads that were delivered on Tuesday evening. That help was appreciated and more will be needed as the Yard Sale unfolds on the next couple of weekends - on the other side of our celebration of Easter. Thanks to everyone who helped move things around and get things in place for our various worship services. Thanks to the choir for their commitment to helping us praise God throughout this Lenten season and tomorrow on Easter. Thanks for all the ways you facilitate the mission and ministry of Hebron Presbyterian Church in our community and world. You are an amazing group.

Tuesday Prayer Group: Prayer Group will meet this Tuesday, April 7 at 11 a.m. in the Activities Building.
Choir will not meet this week.
We Need Eggs For Our Easter Egg Hunt: You are invited to bring plastic eggs with wrapped candy for our Easter Egg Hunt on Easter Sunday, April 5, following worship. You may still bring eggs tomorrow morning.
The Spring Presbyterian Women's Yard Sale is coming next weekend. Friday and Saturday, April 10-11, and 17-18. We have received so many donations that the Activities Building is full. Folks will be working every day this week in preparation for the Yard Sale. All help is welcome both in preparation and the days of the Yard Sale. This event is both a wonderful community activity AND the source of income which allows the Presbyterian Women to do great things both in our church and in their mission giving to many excellent organizations.
The Celebration of the Lord's Supper will be a part of our Easter worship. Our Table is an open table, which means it is not a Presbyterian Table, but the Lord's Table. Our risen Lord invites all those who trust in him to share in the feast that he has prepared.
Each gift to One Great Hour of Sharing helps to improve the lives of people in challenging situations. The Offering provides us a way to share God's love with our neighbors in need. In fact, OGHS is the single, largest way that Presbyterians come together every year to work for a better world. Thank you for your contribution to the One Great Hour of Sharing. Envelopes will also be available the next two Sundays on the back table.
There will be a meeting of the congregation following worship on Sunday, April 12 (not tomorrow, but next Sunday), for the purpose of electing new elders. The nominees to be presented for the class of 2028 are Shelly Brown and Bob Sarver. The meeting will happen immediately following morning worship.
Celebrate Life!
