Resurrection Sunday - Tips On Reaching Others

Sample Slide to help visitors understand Communion.
Every Resurrection Sunday churches are filled with Christians looking to celebrate a risen Savior and Lord.

As a long time elder on Easter Sunday, I have seen extended families packed into rows that we have never seen before and people that attend for egg hunts with children in ties and slicked down hair; and pretty dresses and curls.

  2. I have never read Colossians 4 with this kind of perspective before. I am forwarding this to our pastor. We need to get ready right now for Resurrection Sunday.
