“Greetings from all of us at Immanuel”
At Immanuel Community Reformed Church, Our Mission is: “Going into the community, imitating Christ, by feeding body and soul”.
Our 4 core values are: nurturing children and youth, doing acts of service, responding to real needs in the community, and welcoming the stranger.
Our hope is that we have established an atmosphere where all feel welcome here and are able to engage all that God is, with all that we are!

Offering
The ongoing ministry of the church relies on the generous giving of its members. At this time, we will not be passing the offering plates during the service. Instead, you may place your offerings in the plates located on the stage at the front of the sanctuary immediately following the service.

ANNOUNCEMENTS
March Calling Team: Please call Rick H, or Sandy C with any special concerns or requests.
March Mission of the Month: The Gideons International. We honor this mission in memory of our late member Paul Moerdyk because it was a mission very close to his heart. The Gideons International not only leave bibles in the bedside stands of hotel rooms, but they also translate the bible into many different languages, and they radio broadcast to people who otherwise may never hear the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Easter Garden: If you would like to purchase flowers to place on the stage in the sanctuary during our Easter service on Sunday, April 4, please let us know by responding to the email that was sent out last week on Wednesday titled, “Immanuel Community Reformed Church Easter Garden 2021”, or you may call the church office to order. The deadline is Wednesday, March 31, by 12:00 pm. The cost is $8 per plant. Once all of the monies have been collected, Carol C and Darla L will then go to Horrocks to purchase a variety flowers and then place them on the stage before the service. After the service, you may choose your plants to take home, or you may pick them up here at the church Monday April 5-Wednesday April 7 between the hours of 9:30am- 130pm. You may also choose to donate your flowers to the church if you would like. You may pay with cash or check by placing it in the offering plate here at church. Please indicate that it is for the "Easter Garden". You may also drop off your payment to the office Mon-Wed between the hours of 9:30am-1:30pm, or you can mail it to Immanuel Community Reformed Church, 3200 Delta River Dr. Lansing, MI, 48906.
Easter Trunk-or-Treat: Don’t forget that this Wednesday, March 31, is our Easter Trunk-or-Treat Community Event, from 6-7:30 pm. If you signed up to decorate your vehicle and pass out candy, please come at least 15 minutes early to get parked and set up. Please also be sure to invite your friends and family and let them know that the bunny will be here too! Masks and social distancing will be required.
