Yesterday was a pretty exciting day at New Passion. It was Easter, the day our Savior Jesus, rose from the dead to redeem us from our sins; that alone was all we needed to celebrate. Today, we continue to celebrate as we saw the largest attendance in New Passion’s history! There were children everywhere. It’s remarkable how many 3-4 year old’s our church already has with our regular people and then you add guests to that equation and they were busting at the seams. Having a lot of people in service is always a great thing, but we have even better news to celebrate, 5 people placed their faith in Jesus during the service, while a couple more people asked for information concerning salvation and baptism.
That’s what Easter is all about, Jesus offering hope and new life to a bunch of hopeless and helpless people. Next week we continue the celebration as we will be baptizing anyone believer who would like to follow Jesus in obedience by making a public profession of their faith in him. If you would like to be baptized you can register online.

At New Passion, we want Easter to be a time of celebration and enjoyment for families, but we also want to make a difference in other people’s lives. On Easter we celebrate the day Jesus rose from the dead to give hope to the world, and we believe that Jesus called those who trust in him to care for those who are in distress….
