Greetings and happy Spring to everyone!
In this hard copy of equipping you will find many inspirational pieces
and also items to hand out to different people in your congregations.
Jack Suderman writes about “Easter and us”: how he heard
about experiences in the congregations during the God’s People
Now! Tour that reflect the extremes of Good Friday and of Easter Sunday!
In the Celebration Story we hear that Salsa dancing and Worship do not
have to be opposites and that one can reinforce the other. We know that
David danced in front of the Arc. Sometimes I wish we had the freedom
of our sisters and brothers of the South to move along when we sing joyful
songs in the church!
If you have questions or comments, please call 1-866-888-6785
(or locally, 888-6781) or email me at
. Enjoy!
PS: Can you help ensure that these resources reach
the right people? Thank you!

from documents that contain columns (older versions of Reader selected
text line by line across all columns – a process that would jumble
text and challenge even the most patient user). Download
the latest FREE version of Adobe Reader with this link.
