Over 500 in Attendance: We shared an exciting, dynamic Easter Sunday service with over 500 in attendance. The fast paced service featured celebratory worship, dynamic music featuring the Celebration Choir, the 7-piece instrumental ensemble, stirring multi-media displays, the praise team, special music and an inspiring message, practical Biblical message by Pastor Eric entitled "Easter Proof Believing." Each guest present received a free CD featuring top Christian music artists along with testimonials. The worship center was adorned with decorative banners and Easter lilies which covered the large stage area. We are excited and grateful for what God continues to do at WLBC week by week.
