Easter


Each year we bring fresh flowers for the cross in the sanctuary for the 11 a.m. worship service at the Emerson UMC. It is a beautiful sight to behold.

During this time of Lent and spiritual preparation, we look forward to celebrating as Easter people on that glorious Resurrection Sunday. We must be who we say we are if we are to make disciples for Christ. Let us always celebrate as Easter people and let every day be Resurrection Sunday.
