1. It is a day of worship. Our Lord Jesus lives!
Death did not hold Him. In raising Jesus the Father
affirmed Jesus as His Son and our Savior. The
Resurrection also revealed that the Father accepted
the sacrifice made for our sin. That is all gloriously
worthy of praise and worship. A true believer cannot
be silent or absent from the concert of praise.
2. It is a day of witness. That first Easter contained
the instruction from the Angel to the women to "Go,
tell . . ." (Mark 16:7). Your presence at Easter
services is a witness. Your invitation to family and
friends to be your guests is even more.

I hope you read this before Sunday, April 5. That's
Easter - Resurrection Sunday and I want to encourage
everyone to be at church for Easter services. I know
it's a holiday, end of spring break, family gathering
time, etc . . . . But it is also EASTER - the
celebration of Christ's Resurrection, and that's
BIG for believers.
Easter Sunday is a priority for at least two reasons:

From the Pastor’s Pen
“Dick Tater” is very bossy and likes to tell
others what to do, but doesn’t want to soil his
hands.
“Speck Tater” never seems to get motivated to participate,
but is content to watch others do the work.
“Comment Tater” never does anything to help, and finds fault
with the way others do the work.
“Agie Tater” will say it’s too hot, the preaching is too long, the
music is too loud; they like to keep the pot stirred up and find
people to agree with them.
“Hezzie Tater” says he’s gonna help but just never gets
around to actually doing anything.
“Emma Tater” likes to pretend to be someone she’s not.
“Sweet Tater” brings light to any situation and is always
prepared to do whatever needed, whenever needed to lend a
hand.
Do any of these family members sound familiar? Do you
recognize yourself as one of these family members? Jesus called
us to BE the church. Being the church requires action,
support, encouragement, getting our hands dirty, doing hard
things, and sharing the load. On April 26th you will have the
opportunity to come to “The Ministry Fair” and find a place where
you can become an active member of this family called
Prattmont.
Easter Sunday is BIG! Let's treat it that way!
On Sunday, April 12, I will begin two new message
series for Sunday mornings and evenings. The
Sunday morning series is "Becoming a Healthy
Church." The evening series is "Cool Thoughts for
Hot Heads." Hope you'll join us for these important
words as we BELONG, BELIEVE, AND BECOME!
I love you!
Bro. Randy
Prattmont’s Blessings’ Field Trip to
the Blue Bell Ice Cream
Factory in Sylacauga, AL.
