Meditating on the events of Jesus’ final days and his resurrection can be profound. The challenge for most of us is shutting out the noise and distractions of everyday life long enough to quiet our souls and listen to the Spirit of God.

In “Walking in Jesus’ Footsteps”, you will interactively meditate on Jesus’ journey to the cross. There will be 13 rooms set-up throughout the church for you to walk through and spend some time contemplating. You will be able to listen, see, touch and experience the many sights and sounds that Jesus experienced in His final days leading to His crucifixion. This journey takes about an hour, but feel free to “travel” at your own pace. Sponsored by Grove City Alliance Student Ministries.

Easter Offering This year’s Easter Offering will be equally divided between our teams going to Gabon, Africa and the

Dominican Republic.
