Emmanuel Episcopal Church

Sunday, Apr. 29 is Youth Sunday followed by a cookout.  This service is always a favorite, so be sure to be there!

On Saturday April 21, Emmanuel is offering a valuable workshop where you’ll have the opportunity to learn about wills, probate, advanced directives, planned giving, and funeral/memorial service options. It’s not necessarily the kind of workshop most people would get excited about. But it is a workshop that will be important to you, or someone you love, at some point in your lives.

Really good, valuable information is going to be provided–information that would otherwise cost you a lot of money and time– and it’s all going to be in one place on one day, for a very low cost (that covers lunch). At least one family member from each household should attend.

So please plan to join us for this day-long workshop to learn about the various legal documents, such as wills, that you should have to protect your estate, large or small. We’ll explore planned giving options, including ways you can provide a financial gift that will benefit your heirs as well as your church or other nonprofit. Finally, we will provide a step-by-step example for planning your funeral.

The workshop will be held at Emmanuel Episcopal Church, 1603 E. Winter Park Rd, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Lunch and materials will be provided.

Reservations required.

Cost: $10.00

Easter morning is a wonderful time to attend church!  Easter breakfast will be at 9:00 – all are welcome!  The children will have an Easter Egg Hunt at 9:30 and they’ll dig up the Alleluia Banner.  Then our main service is at 10:15.   There is also a “quieter” service at 8:00 a.m. (followed by the breakfast).

All in all…a GREAT day at Emmanuel.  If you’re looking for a church to visit, please join us.  We’re a friendly parish and would love to have you!  Emmanuel is located at 1603 E. Winter Park Rd, Orlando, FL 32803.

The Wednesday evening Lenten program will be on “How Can I Know God’s Will, Guidance, Leading, Direction in My Life?”  There are actually some simple basic guidelines as to how we can sense God’s leading in our lives.  Come and find out on Weds. evenings in Lent.
