The  flowers for today’s service are given in memory of Ruth Ellen Lee by Ernie Lee.
Special Thanks:
Every Sunday at Asbury, there are people who work behind the scenes to help make the day so meaningful and wonderful for all of us and for our visitors. We thank those unsung heroes of faith—our greeters, ushers, connecters, nursery workers, children's church teachers, and Asbury's Hospitality Team.

Benediction and "Here I Am Lord"
Rev. Billy Hester reminds the congregation not to forget Maudy Thursday (the last supper), not to run past Good Friday (the crucifixion), and not to speed to Easter Sunday (the resurrection); and to go in the Lord's Peace. The Asbury Memorial Choir closes with the choral version of "The Lord's Peace," and the congregation exits the sanctuary in contemplative silence.
