Easter Service Schedule

Join us for the most wonderful day on the Christian calendar - Easter Sunday - Resurrection Sunday!

Scheduled activities include:

Breakfast in Fellowship Hall - 9:30-10:15 AM
Resurrection Service - 10:30-11:45 AM
(The choir will present the cantata "Finished!")

Please note that there will be no Sunday School hour on Easter Sunday.


Good Friday or Good Wednesday?


Every year at Easter, the question resurfaces - what day was Jesus crucified on.  Some say Friday, some say Thursday, and some say Wednesday.

Some years ago I taught a Sunday School class and addressed the issue.  In case you are interested in the answer to the question, I'm re-posting that lesson here.  Even though it is just my raw teaching notes, it may be helpful to some who wonder.

Oh... and if you're wondering the answer but don't have time to read the evidence - He was crucified on a Friday and rose on a Sunday.


Words From the Cross





Join your friends at Friendship Bible Church as we remember the death of our Savior in our Good Friday service.

It was the day Satan lost... the day sin was defeated... the day our brokenness was made whole... the day all our sickness was healed... the day all our sins were atoned... the day all our debt was paid... the day death died.

Friday - 7:00 PM

I thirst (John 19:28)
Why hast Thou forsaken Me? (Matt. 27:46)

Haven of Rest





Hey faithful Haven of Rest volunteers, don't forget that this is the first Saturday of the month, when we feed the hungry at the Haven of Rest in Akron. Meet at the Haven at 10:00 and you'll be done by noon. Remember the words of our Lord:

Then the King will say to those on His right hand, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.’ “Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink? When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You? Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’ And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.’ (Matthew 25:34-40 NKJV)
