May 1...Peoria Rescue Mission Service (Thursday)
The tomb is one of the evidences of the resurrection. The soldiers who were guarding the tomb were compelled to lie about the body (Matthew 28:11-15), as if the disciples had stolen His body. The burial clothes were left folded and neatly arranged. We share the joy of Christians of every age because Jesus Christ has truly risen from the dead!

Youth & Teen Group
The El Vista Teens have a full schedule of fun activities and spiritual training. Led by Pastor Phil & Randi Lancaster, the Teen Group meets in Sunday School at 9:30 AM, then has Teen Soul Winning at 4:30 PM. Wednesday night and Power Hour & prayer time start at 7:00 PM.
We appreciate the time our workers give to the young people -- teaching, visiting, planning, and hosting a number of activities every year. Our desire is to see the young people come to know the Lord Jesus as Savior; to walk with Him in daily life at home, school, and neighborhood; and to yield their lives to Him in following His will. Pray for our teens, their parents, and our outreach to them.
El Vista Baptist Church has been improving the Children's Church Ministry over the past few years. Now consisting of three groups during our morning service, our skillful workers love the children, and on an age-sensitive basis teach the Word of God. Many have been won to Christ and lessons for Christian living have been taught.
