So many of our religious holidays from all the faith communities, we, in one way or another, greet each other with the opening word, “Happy….” However, for Roman Catholics to the Liturgical Christians to the Evangelical Christians, Good Friday is not a faith holiday to acknowledged by the word, “Happy.” Instead, Good Friday is a day for reverence and reflection.
This evening, our faith Orange County Evangelical Christian Single Ministry, O.C. Singles for Christ, are celebrating the special day for Christians with a different service and evening than their usual Friday evening social, worship, and study time.
The Good Friday Service hosted by the O.C. Singles for Christ Ministry is serving the worship needs of both single and coupled off Christians. Both Christian singles and couples will come together this evening for a special service celebrating Good Friday. The worship music this evening features The Mike Wallace Worship band.
The special Good Friday Gathering starts at 7:15 pm in case you need to go directly there from work.
Pastor Thomas will be teaching a special Easter weekend message on, “Facing Our Giants and Vanquishing Them.”
And while the Roman Catholic and Liturgical Christians wouldn’t dream of it Friday or Saturday, the O.C. Singles for Christ will be celebrating communion this evening.
If you’re a regular follower of my Dating and Relationships Advice blog, then you might have noticed that normally the O.C. Singles for Christ folks offer a pretty nice meal by super inexpensive donation prior to the evening worship time. They are currently describing that pre-worship time from 6:15 -7:14 pm (how’s THAT for precision!) as being a time of “light refreshment.” So, while you can probably get a light snack together with the O.C. Singles for Christ family this evening, if you need to eat dinner before the worship time, you’ll probably need to go grab and bring that with you so your stomach feels good during the Family Worship time.
Following the Family Worship time the whole group will head on over to Family friendly American Food restaurant Applebee’s for a no-host meal together on Brookhurst and Ellis in Fountain Valley, CA.
O.C. Singles for Christ meets Friday evenings at:
10350 Ellis Avenue
Fountain Valley, CA. 92708

Wishing you and yours a very special Easter.
