“Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words.” Romans 8:26

 Let us pray together…

• For peace throughout the world, that those acting in anger and retribution would experience the mercy of God and so be able to have mercy on others.
• That God would continue to enable World Relief as they lead churches in the work of creating lasting change in communities around the world.
• For the city of Boston, that Mayor Michelle Wu and other leaders would have wisdom in enacting fair policies for the good of all.
• For Park Street Church, that Boston would know we are Christ’s disciples because of our love for one another.

As we approach the joyous season of Easter, we’re excited to come together and celebrate the Lord’s resurrection. To make our festivities even more special, we’re inviting you to contribute by bringing your favorite baked goods, desserts, or finger foods to share.

Please plan to bring your contributions at one of the following timesbefore Easter Sunday, as this will make Sunday’s receptions smoother for our hospitality volunteers:

• SUN, MAR 24 (Palm Sunday), before any service, to the Welcome Center kitchen (for items that can withstand a longer stay in the fridge/freezer) 
• SAT, MAR 30, 10am-1pm, to the Granary Room kitchen

Though not preferred, we can accept contributions on SUN, MAR 31 (Easter Sunday) before each service, to the Fellowship Hall kitchen. Black serving trays will be available for pickup on SUN, MAR 24.
