Amen. Can we give a hand clap of praise to God? So powerful. Just getting to be together like this.

You can have a seat right where you are. I want to invite you to go ahead and look at the person that you're seated next to and say, I'm so glad I ended up next to you at the church service. I never thought I was going to be attending online.

This is the most unlikely way for us to be gathering, but we wanted to create an experience where you could feel like you

this, and what's crazy is we'll probably be gathered like this for Easter this year. But we're

just believing that God has something new

and something so significant for this season. So we want to invite you to lean in with us during

this time. Many of you have asked about how you can serve and what do we do for our community

when the number one recommendation coming is that we stay at home and that we socially distance or for

introverts you get to live your best life but for others of us I know even for introverts that

I've talked to people are like it's kind of driving me crazy I'm ready to get out and what a lot of

people want to do is serve especially in the Auburn community what we want you to do is go to
