REEDSPORT CHURCH OF GOD PLANS EASTER SERVICE IN PACIFIC AUDITORIUM
The Community Is Invited to Participate
The Reedsport Church of God will be holding its Easter service at Pacific Auditorium on Easter Sunday morning, April 20, at 10:30 am. A free Easter breakfast will be served at the Reedsport Community Charter School cafeteria directly before the service from 9:15 to 10:15.
"Anyone who does not already have a home church is welcome to join us at the cafeteria for breakfast and at Pacific Auditorium for our Easter celebration," said Pastor Allen Chaney.
The Easter service will include all of the regular service elements along with an Easter choir number and ringing from the Celebration Handbell Choir.
There will be childcare for children up to age five in a room near the auditorium, but there will be no regular Sunday school for this one Sunday. Children are welcome to join the congregation in the auditorium, and special children's activity booklets will be provided.
Parking is available outside the front auditorium entrance on Longwood Avenue or in the back parking lot of Reedsport Community Charter School.
