We had a great time battled with each other at our Game Night last week. Our very own Raquel Marquez was ahead in the tournament but was overcame by Danny Sanchez at the last minute for an old fashion came from behind victory that earning him the big "W" and the prize. It certainly was a fun night and I know I am looking forward to do it again in the future.

Just a friendly reminder we have an amazing Easter weekend planned and we hope you can join us for the celebration.

Join us for Good Friday service at 7pm for a time of worship, prayer and the Lord's supper.

For Easter Sunday we will begin with the new study series "Who is This Man? Does it Matter?" at 9am in FLC Rm 208 and worship gathering at 10:30am in the main worship center.

Happy Easter! We'll see you this weekend at FBCA.

The 2nd Annual Game Night(Single Adults 40+) is coming up tomorrow night at 5pm in room 103. We still have spots opened if you are interested to join for either poker or monopoly tournament. Just show up and we will assign a seat for you. The winner of each tournament will receive either the movie tickets or gift certificates. You are welcome to watch or play other board games during the tournament as you wish. Drinks and refreshment will be provided.

Also just to remind everyone that we are approaching the most significant week of the entire year for followers of Jesus. The experiences that happened between Palm Sunday, the upper room, the garden of Gethsemane, Golgotha, and the empty tomb redefined history and eternity.

We will start the Palm Sunday experience with the new series "Who is This Man? Does It Matter?" at 9am in Rm 208 and follow by the Special Musical at 10:30am in worship center this Sunday. My prayer is the study series and services planned for this weekend will be a moving experience that you'll find meaningful to your spiritual journey.

Don't forget to join our study groups this weekend as we learn about the Bible and how to be the person God intended us to be.

Have a wonderful weekend!

It's time for some outdoor activity as we welcome the spring season 2013. We will be headed to Echo Mountain this Saturday. This is a half day and easy hike as we are going up to see the historical hotel and gorgeous view around the canyon. I suggested you to wear comfortable hiking or tennis shoes and bring a light sweater as may be cool in the morning. Meet at church parking lot for carpool at 7am if you are interested.

There will be a musical presentation by USF choir this saturday at 7pm, worship center. The fun part is that we are asked to serve and clean up after dinner with Steve (from Atherton) at Family Life Center this Saturday. Please come to family life center at 5pm if you are interested.

We will start a new series "Who is This Man? Does It Matter?" this sunday at 9am in Rm 208. Let's come and learn about Jesus and his humanity.

By the way, thank you everyone who came to the All Church Work Day last saturday. I can see our facility is nicer this week.
