Risen
'And as they were frightened and bowed their faces to the ground, the men said to them, “Why do you seek the living among the dead? '
Luke 24:5
Dear Journey Family…
What are you thirsty for?
Jesus, on the cross just minutes from surrendering his spirit, thirsts for water. That after enduring the punishment not just from the Romans and their sentence but from the wrath of God on him because of our sin. He was thirsty, showing that he was in his full human condition, as a flesh and blood man, paying for our transgressions. He was thirsty. At no point in this event did he use his divinity as a tool to ease his pain. He left it all aside.
That was necessary:
'For as by the one man’s disobedience the many were made sinners, so by the one man’s obedience the many will be made righteous. ' Romans 5:19
Join us this Sunday to worship with us through singing and to dive into the scriptures as we look at another one of Jesus’ famous words from the cross.
Good Friday Communion Service
It’s tomorrow! Good Friday Communion Service, Friday, April 7 at 6:30pm.
Please prepare your hearts to remember and celebrate our Lord’s last supper and his sacrifice on the cross and join us for a time to reflect and thank him for the hope we have in him.
We are so Eggcited!!
Thank you all for the enormous amount of eggs everyone has brought. We are thankful and excited for what God will be doing in this event.
Now we just need people -many kids to come and pick up these eggs.
Please invite people to the egg hunt. As we said before, this is an outreach event and we would love to see many people attending the event but also having the opportunity to know Christ.
There are still invitations available in the back of the room at the worship center.
If you want to use a digital invitation to post it on your social media or to email or text someone, you can grab it HERE.
Please continue to pray for this event.
And if you want to volunteer, we still need helpers for the day of the event and beforehand. If you are interested in helping, please email us HERE.
The 2023 Community Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday, April 8th at 10:30am at Coffman Park in Dublin by the Dublin Rec Center, will be an event to remember.
Invite A Friend…
We hope you are excited about celebrating Resurrection Sunday this week. This is the biggest celebration in the Christian faith. Everything in the Bible hinges on this event and for thousands of years now we look at this particular day as the day the entire human race were clearly given the way to get to heaven.
We encourage you to invite friends, neighbors, family members because we want to tell of the wonders of God and his message of salvation.
Please, if at all possible, make sure that we get your guest’s information so we can follow up and send them a welcome message and more information about Journey Church.
(As a reminder and to make sure we are welcoming to our friends and visitors, please park in the areas adjacent to ours. Thank you)

Come join us for a great time of fellowship. We’ll have dinner, a time of worship and a message from the Word of God and it will be a great opportunity for fellowship with other men.
What is Journeymen you might ask? Here is a bit of info on the vision and purpose of Journeymen:
JOURNEYMEN VISION
To see Men that are Pursuing Life in Christ.
JOURNEYMEN PURPOSE
Educate, train and inspire men to pursue life in Christ by following Jesus, not just merely “believing” in Jesus.
Mark your calendars and invite a friend or two.
Paint Class Is Back!
We are inviting all our friends young and adult to another session of Bible By Colors, Spring Edition. Start inviting your friends because this is an outreach event, which means that it is a great opportunity to invite someone that normally would say no to go to church. Have them come to a “low key” event where we can get them connected with the ministry but ultimately connected with Jesus.
The date is Saturday, May 6th at 3pm, sign up online.
New Small Group
Pastor Brian is starting a new group starting this Tuesday, April 11th at 10am at the Journey Church building. If you are retired or close to be retired and are interested in this new group, please contact Pastor Brian, but you are absolutely welcome to join them every Tuesday.
That’s all we have for now - it’s your turn to let us know what your thoughts are.
If you have anything that we can help in prayer, please let us know.
We’d love to pray with you and for you.
