Let's get Passionate about Passion Week!

I heard a GREAT sermon by our pastor, Scott Jackson, at Fellowship Church in Arkadelphia, AR yesterday and want to challenge you, just as he did, to get PASSIONATE about PASSION WEEK! He gave us an excellent guide that outlines the various passages in the Bible of the events leading up to Jesus' resurrection and ways to remember and reflect on these events. So, please join me in rekindling or strengthening your love for our Risen Savior and Lord! Let's get Passionate about Passion Week!
