INTRODUCTION

Jesus. The Lamb of God. Our Redeemer. Our Savior. Our Hope.
Jesus is God. Jesus came to Earth to die a death He didn’t deserve for us.
Jesus is sinless. That means He was not guilty of any wrongdoing. He had never
disobeyed His parents. He had never been unkind to anyone. He had never even had
a bad thought. Can you imagine that? Jesus shows Himself to us in His Word, the
Bible. The Bible is not a book of stories that have been made up. The Bible is truth.
The Bible is history. It is HIS story.

Jesus had grown up in the town of Nazareth. Around the age of 30, He began
His public ministry. Jesus taught, performed miracles, and challenged the religious
leaders. Many people followed Jesus and were amazed at His teaching. Others didn’t
like what He was teaching. In fact, some of the religious leaders hated Jesus and
plotted to kill Him. They were jealous of Jesus’ following. Jesus had also rebuked the
religious leaders and called them out publicly for their hypocrisy, so they had a score
to settle.

During this time in history, the Romans ruled the people in Israel. The Jews didn’t
want to be ruled by the Romans. They were waiting for their Messiah. They wanted
a powerful king who would free them from Roman rule. Some of them watched to
see if Jesus would be the One. Tensions were rising! This was the scene when Jesus
entered Jerusalem riding on a donkey.

We’re going to take a look at Jesus’ last week. Where did He go? What did He do?
What is the significance of these events? Each daily entry will include Bible reading,
an attribute of God, an account from Jesus’ last week, and an activity. As you read
through this devotional together as a family, pay close attention to the fulfillment of
Old Testament Scripture. This was God’s plan! God is sovereign. He is in control. He
is the highest authority. He is supreme. God can use whomever or whatever He wills
to fulfill His plan.

As you read through this devotional, make it personal. Ask yourself what this means
to you. How will you respond?

*Multiple Scripture references are provided for each entry. An asterisk (*) indicates the
main Scripture text for each day.

SATURDAY READ:

JESUS IS ANOINTED Matthew 26:6-13
Mark 14:3-9
*John 12:1-8

ATTRIBUTE: HOLY

To be holy is to be unstained or untainted by sin. Jesus is the only person who never
sinned. He is spotless. He is pure. He is beautiful. All of this makes Him worthy of our
worship. The more we know Jesus, the more we are aware of His holiness and our
sinfulness.

ACCOUNT:

When Jesus was in Bethany at the home of Simon the Leper having dinner, Mary,
Martha, and Lazarus were there. Mary took a bottle of very expensive perfume and
poured it all on Jesus’ head. The value of this perfume today would be about $10,000!
She poured so much of it that it ran down to His feet! Then she wiped His feet with
her hair. Mary didn’t care that she was doing what was socially unacceptable by letting
down her hair. She wasn’t worried about what others would think of her. She only
wanted to worship Jesus. Judas Iscariot, who was one of Jesus’ disciples and keeper
of the money, criticized Mary and said the money could have been used to help the
poor. Judas wasn’t really concerned about the poor. He was a thief and helped himself
to what was in the moneybag. Jesus defended Mary’s humble act of love and said she
had done a beautiful thing for Him. Jesus said Mary would be remembered for what
she had done for Him.

Mary had actually prepared Jesus’ body for burial. She likely didn’t realize her act was
significant in that way. She was just focused on worshipping Jesus. She was aware
of His holiness and her own sinfulness. She is a wonderful example to us of humbly
worshipping our Savior. On a previous occasion when Jesus visited the home of
Lazarus, Mary, and Martha, the two sisters responded to Jesus’ visit in very different
ways. Martha was all caught up in serving Jesus and became angry when Mary chose
to sit at His feet. Mary’s priorities were in the right order.

ACTIVITY:

Discuss ways in which we can be like Mary. How can we humbly show our
love for Christ?

SUNDAY READ:

*Zechariah 9:9

JESUS RIDES INTO JERUSALEM *Matthew 21:1-11
Mark 11:1-10

Luke 19:28-44

ATTRIBUTE: HUMILITY John 12:12-16

People who are humble are not people who think of themselves less; they are people

who are not thinking of themselves at all. Humility is the opposite of pride. A proud or

arrogant person is someone who wants to be noticed and praised for who they are or

what they do. A humble person puts others ahead of themselves. Jesus continually

displayed true humility.

ACCOUNT:

The people in Jerusalem were preparing to celebrate the Passover. The time had come
for Jesus to enter into Jerusalem. He knew His time on earth was coming to a close. He
knew what lay ahead of Him in Jerusalem. He knew the danger that awaited Him, yet
He chose to go anyway. He sent two of His disciples ahead of them to bring a donkey
to Him. His disciples did as they were told. They put their cloaks on the donkey for
Jesus. Crowds had gathered along the road into Jerusalem. They spread their cloaks
and palm branches on the road. This is why we often call this day Palm Sunday. As
Jesus rode into Jerusalem riding on the donkey, the people shouted praises to Him.
They shouted “Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of
the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!”

Jesus could have entered Jerusalem riding a horse with great fanfare. But he didn’t. He
was humble. Who would expect a king to come riding on a lowly donkey? We wouldn’t.
But to the Jews, this was significant! The Old Testament prophet Zechariah prophesied
hundreds of years before that the Messiah would come riding on the foal of a donkey.
Many people were shouting “Hosanna!” which means “Save us now!” Jesus wept over
those who did not recognize Him as Messiah.

ACTIVITY:

Make paper palm branches and role play Jesus’ entrance into Jerusalem.
Discuss how the different groups of people would have reacted to Jesus’
entrance. (Jesus’ followers, Pharisees, Romans)

MONDAY READ:

JESUS CLEANSES THE TEMPLE *Isaiah 56:7
*Matthew 21:12-17
Mark 11:12-26
Luke 19:45-48

ATTRIBUTE: RIGHTEOUS

Righteous means to be upright, just, virtuous, or moral. Jesus is the perfect example of
someone who is righteous. None of us can truly be righteous because we are all guilty
of wrongdoing. We can trust Him to always do what is right.

ACCOUNT:

After Jesus entered Jerusalem, He went to the temple. The temple is where people went
to worship God. It was divided into different sections or areas. There was the Court of
the Gentiles, Women’s Court, Men’s Court, and Holy Place. The outer court was the
Gentile Court. The Gentiles were not allowed to go beyond this point. They could even
be killed for doing so! The Men’s and Women’s Courts were only for Jewish men and
women respectively. Only the priest could enter into the Holy Place. The problem was
that the Jews had corrupted the temple. In the Gentile Courts, moneychangers were
exchanging money for people to pay their temple tax. They often cheated people and
kept some of the money for themselves. Instead of welcoming the Gentiles into the
temple to worship, the Jews were using them to pad their own pockets! They would
charge about a 12% fee, which would be about a day’s wage. The annual profit for
these moneychangers was about five years-worth of wages, which would be about
$200,000 today!

Other vendors had set up areas in the Gentile Court to sell animals needed for sacrifices.
It was like a giant flea market! Can you imagine going into your church and finding
animal pens set up and people buying and selling animals for sacrifices? Think of the
noise and smell! Would you be able to worship with all that going on? This is what
Jesus found when He entered the temple. This place of worship had become a place of
dishonest business. He overturned the tables and drove all of them out. Jesus, alone,
was left standing in the temple. How fitting, as the temple was made for Him, to bring
Him glory. This was the second time Jesus cleansed the temple. He wanted the temple
to be a place of worship and prayer. The Gentiles would be able to go directly to God
in prayer. Then Jesus healed the blind and lame who came to Him, and people praised
Him. The chief priests and teachers of the law began looking for a way to kill Him.

ACTIVITY:

Make a list of all the idols in our own lives. What do we love more than Jesus?
Ask God to forgive us for loving anything or anyone more than we love Him.
God takes worship seriously. Spend time as a family in prayer.

TUESDAY READ:

JESUS TEACHES IN THE TEMPLE Matthew 21:23-46
Mark 11:27-33
*Luke 19:47-21:38

ATTRIBUTE: OMNISCIENT

Omniscient means all-knowing. Jesus knows everything we do and say. He even
knows what we think! We cannot hide anything from God. He knows us all the way to
the bottom of our soul, better than we know ourselves. Despite all of this, He loves us
anyway.

ACCOUNT:

Jesus spent much of His time during His last week teaching in the temple. He often
taught in parables. Parables were stories with a heavenly meaning. Jesus would tell a
story which people could relate to in order to teach a spiritual truth. People would come
to hear Him, but not all the people were friendly. The religious leaders, the Pharisees
and Sadducees, asked Jesus questions to try to trick Him. They asked Jesus questions
about marriage, taxes, and by what authority He taught. But Jesus knew what they
were thinking and knew their motivation. Jesus knew they were trying to trick Him. He
even warned the disciples to beware of the teachers of the law. The chief priests and
teachers of the law wanted to kill Jesus, but they were afraid of the crowds. Think about
that! The very people who had studied the Scriptures were the very ones who wanted
Jesus dead!

One day while Jesus was teaching in the temple, He saw rich people putting their
offerings into the temple treasury. When they would drop their coins, everyone nearby
would hear the coins clinking. Then one woman gave two small copper coins. Jesus
knew she was very poor, and she had given all she had. Jesus condemned the teachers
of the law for their religious practices. They had created a religious system that focused
the attention on them rather than on worshipping God. It was a religion of works about
how to earn one’s way to Heaven.

Think about these different groups of people. Some thought Jesus was a prophet.
Others thought He was a false teacher and a liar. Some believed Jesus was the
Messiah. And one gave all she had to worship Him.

ACTIVITY:

Think about the ramifications of each of these ways of thinking. What if Jesus

was merely a prophet? What if Jesus was a false teacher and a liar? What if

Jesus was the Messiah? (Hint: He was!) Think about your friends and family.

To which group would they belong? How do people try to earn their way to Heaven?

Discuss ways you can share the truth of Jesus and His love. Make a list of family and

friends who do not have a relationship with Jesus and pray for them. 6

WEDNESDAY READ:

JESUS IS BETRAYED Psalm 41:9
Psalm 55:12-14
ATTRIBUTE: SOVEREIGN *Zechariah 11:12
*Matthew 26:1-5; 14-16
To be sovereign means to be in control. It is having supreme Luke 22:1-6
power and authority. It means being above all others. God John 11:45-57
is sovereign. He has a plan, and His plan is perfect.

ACCOUNT:

The chief priests and religious leaders plotted to kill Jesus. They had tried multiple times
to kill Him, but every time Jesus was able to escape. One time Jesus literally walked
right through the crowd that was trying to kill Him! God had a plan, and that included
the right time for Jesus to die. The chief priests decided to wait until after the Passover
celebration to kill Jesus. However, God’s plan would prevail.

Judas was one of Jesus’ disciples. He had spent time with Jesus. He had seen Jesus
perform miracles and forgive sins. Jesus had invested in him. Judas must have been a
trustworthy disciple because he was in charge of the money bag. However, what the
others didn’t realize was that Judas wasn’t what he appeared to be. Judas eventually
went to the chief priests to make arrangements to betray Jesus. They were happy to
hear Judas would help them and offered him money. Having someone on the inside
would certainly help them in their plot to kill Jesus! They agreed to pay Judas thirty
pieces of silver. This is the exact amount prophesied hundreds of years earlier by
Zechariah! Judas then waited for the perfect opportunity to hand over Jesus.

One thing that is amazing is that Jesus chose Judas as one of His disciples, fully
knowing he would one day betray Him. Would we choose as one of our best friends
someone we knew would one day hurt and betray us, someone who would hand us
over to be killed? Jesus did. Jesus knew this was God’s plan. He had come to die
for us.

ACTIVITY:

It appeared that Satan was winning as the plot to kill Jesus was coming
together. But remember, this was God’s plan. Have you had times when
things seemed out of control or things seemed hopeless? God can use your
situation for good. Pray together as a family about a situation in which you
need to trust God to use it for His good.

THURSDAY READ:

JESUS SERVES HIS DISCIPLES *Zechariah 13:7
AND IS ARRESTED *Matthew 26:17-56
Mark 14:12-52
Luke 22:7-53
John 13:1-18:14

ATTRIBUTE: GRACE & MERCY

Grace and mercy are often confused. Grace is God giving us what we do not deserve.
Mercy is God not giving us the punishment we do deserve. Grace and mercy go hand-
in-hand. God’s grace and mercy are limitless. Jesus took the judgment that should
have been ours, and He forgave our debt that we could never repay. How gracious and
merciful is our God!

ACCOUNT:

Jesus gave instructions to His disciples to prepare for the Passover meal. They made the
preparations and were directed to an upper room, just as Jesus had instructed them.
The Jews celebrated the Passover meal each year to remember God’s deliverance
from slavery in Egypt and God sparing them from the angel of death. That evening,
Jesus did something totally unexpected. He washed His disciples’ feet. This was a job
for the lowest slaves! Can you imagine what the disciples were thinking at this point?
Think about this for a moment. Jesus even washed Judas’ feet! Judas, the one Jesus
knew was about to betray Him. Would you do that for someone you knew was about
to have you arrested and killed? He was teaching them to be humble and training them
to be sent out and serve others sacrificially. Jesus also reminded them He would be
leaving them.

As Jesus and His disciples ate the Passover meal, Jesus instituted a new covenant
by using the bread and wine to represent His own sacrifice for our sins. People would
no longer have to bring animal sacrifices to the Temple. Jesus Christ was the perfect
atonement for our sins. We celebrate communion to remember Jesus’ new covenant
and His sacrifice for our sins.

During the Passover meal, Judas left to betray Jesus. Jesus and His disciples went to
the Garden of Gethsemane to pray. Jesus prayed in agony, so much that He sweat
drops of blood. Jesus knew what He was about to do. Judas brought 600 soldiers
to arrest Jesus. Jesus willingly went with them, and when Peter cut off the ear of one
of the soldiers, Jesus healed him. Knowing what He would go through within the next
hours, He still healed the soldier’s ear! His disciples scattered and abandoned Jesus.
They were afraid what might happen to them.

ACTIVITY:

Make a Grace & Mercy List. Think of all the ways God gives you grace and

mercy. Start with this…every breath we take is because of His grace. 8

FRIDAY READ:

*Isaiah 53:1-12

JESUS IS TRIED & CRUCIFIED *Matthew 26:57-27:61
Mark 15

Luke 23:1-49

ATTRIBUTE: LOVE John 19

We use the word “love” to mean many different things. We say we love people, and we

love our toys, or maybe our new phone, but is this really love? Agape love is sacrificial

love. That kind of love comes at a cost. That’s the kind of love Jesus has for each of us.

Jesus gave His life so we might live. He knows us all the way to the bottom of our soul,

and yet He still loves us.

ACCOUNT:

Jesus was arrested, flogged, and beaten beyond recognition. People made up lies
about Him. He had six trials in six hours! He appeared before Annas, Caiaphas,
the Sanhedrin, Pilate, Herod, and again before Pilate. None of the religious leaders
wanted to be responsible for Jesus’ death. They thought Jesus’ death would solve all
their problems. What they didn’t realize was that Jesus’ death would bring salvation.
Meanwhile, Peter followed from a distance, afraid he would be recognized as a follower
of Jesus. When he was recognized, he lied and denied knowing Jesus three times. Peter
knew he had failed his dearest friend, his Messiah. Pilate knew Jesus was innocent, but
he was more concerned with his own political reputation. The trials were a complete
mockery that broke their own laws. When Pilate offered to release one of the prisoners,
the crowd, incited by the chief priests, demanded Barabbas instead of Jesus. Could
the people who now shouted, “Crucify Him!” be the very people who had praised Jesus
as He rode into Jerusalem? Crucifixion was a barbaric method of death perfected by
the Romans. Pilate gave the people what they wanted and sentenced Jesus to death
by crucifixion, then washed his hands to try to remove his guilt. The guilty was set free,
while the innocent One was condemned.

Jesus was crucified between two guilty thieves. At any moment Jesus could have
saved Himself. In fact, some people mocked Him and shouted for Him to save Himself.
Even in His suffering, He asked God the Father to forgive them. The worst part would
have been when God the Father turned away from Him, and He was separated from
God. From noon until about three in the afternoon darkness came over the land. There
was an earthquake, and dead people were raised to life! The curtain in the temple was
torn from top to bottom! Even one of the centurions confessed that Jesus truly was the
Son of God.

ACTIVITY:

Discuss a time when you were embarrassed about identifying with Christ.

9 What did you do or say? What would you do differently now?

SATURDAY READ:

*Isaiah 53:9

JESUS REMAINS IN THE TOMB Zechariah 12:10-14
*Matthew 27:62-66

*Luke 23:50-56

ATTRIBUTE: FAITHFUL John 19:38-42

Faithful means to honor ones promises. How many times have we not followed through

with our promises? God always honors His covenants and keeps His promises. We can

trust God, because He will always remain faithful. Jesus told his disciples he would rise

on the third day, and He kept His promise.

ACCOUNT:

It was finished. Jesus, Creator of the universe, crucified on a cross. Jesus, the One
who created the tree on which He would one day be crucified, the One who created
the plant that would one day produce the crown of thorns that would be pressed onto
His head, the One who created the hill on which He would die, the One who created
the ones who would betray Him and scorn Him and abandon Him. Through all of this
Jesus remained faithful!

On Friday, after Jesus’ sacrificial death on the cross, Joseph of Arimathea, a rich man
who had become a follower of Jesus, went to Pilate and asked for Jesus’ body. Pilate
agreed and released Jesus’ body to Joseph. He took Jesus’ body and wrapped it in
clean linen and placed Him in his own tomb. He then rolled a huge stone in front of the
entrance. Shabbat, the Hebrew word for Sabbath, was Saturday, the seventh day of
the week, and was set aside as a day of rest to focus on God. No one went to the tomb
on Saturday. Instead, they rested and obeyed the laws of the Sabbath. Preparation for
Shabbat would begin on Friday afternoon, and Shabbat would begin at sunset.

The chief priests and Pharisees went to Pilate and told him that Jesus had said he
would rise on the third day. They were afraid the disciples would steal Jesus’ body and
try to convince people Jesus had risen from the dead. Pilate agreed to secure the tomb,
so they sealed the tomb and posted guards. It would have been obvious if anyone
tampered with the seal. Guarding the tomb would have been serious business. The
guards would have been killed for not doing their job.

During this time, the disciples were possibly still hiding because they feared for their
lives. They were afraid of what would be done to them. And so they stayed away from
the tomb until the third day.

ACTIVITY:

The Jews set aside the seventh day as a day of rest. We worship God on the

first day of the week, Sunday. Think about what you do on Sundays. How is

Sunday different for you than the other days of the week? Discuss what you 10

could do to make this day special.

SUNDAY READ:

*Psalm 16:8-10

JESUS RISES FROM THE DEAD Hosea 6:2
Matthew 28:1-20

Mark 16:1-8

ATTRIBUTE: OMNIPOTENT Luke 24:1-12
*John 20:1-25
Omnipotent means all-powerful. This means being more

powerful than any super hero! God spoke the world into

existence. He holds the universe together. There is nothing too difficult for God. Jesus

rose from the dead on the third day and had victory over death.

ACCOUNT:

On the first day of the week, Sunday, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to
the tomb and found an angel who told them Jesus had risen bodily from the dead.
The angel told them to come inside the tomb and look and then go tell the disciples
Jesus had risen and was going to Galilee. While the women were on their way to tell
the disciples, the guards went to the chief priests and told them everything that had
happened. The chief priests paid the guards to lie and say the disciples stole the body.

When the women had told the disciples what they had seen, Peter and John ran to the
tomb and went inside. They saw the burial cloths, but no Jesus. The cloths were lying
on the slab as though Jesus’ body had passed right through them. The cloth that had
been wrapped around Jesus’ head was folded and lying separately from the others.
They still didn’t understand Jesus had risen, so they went back to the place they were
staying.

Mary Magdalene had returned to the tomb and was outside weeping. Can you imagine
her grief? The One who had rescued her from demons and who had radically changed
her life was gone! She saw a man she thought was the gardener. But the man was
Jesus! When Jesus spoke her name, she recognized Him. She called Him teacher. He
told her she could not touch him because He had not yet ascended to the Father. Jesus
told Mary to go tell the disciples He would ascend to His Father. It was not the time to
cling to Him, it was time to go and tell. She immediately went to the disciples and told
them the good news.

That evening, Jesus appeared to the disciples. Can you imagine their joy? Thomas
wasn’t there when this happened, and he didn’t believe it when they told them. He
wanted to see the evidence! Thomas would see the evidence. He would see the risen
Christ!

ACTIVITY:

Have you ever doubted Jesus? Make a list of all the things Jesus can do that
we cannot. Spend time praising Him for His omnipotence.

11

CLOSING

Jesus appeared to many others over a period of forty days before He ascended
to Heaven. He appeared to the disciples again when Thomas was present.
Thomas touched His hands and His side. Jesus knew Thomas wanted to see
the evidence! He appeared to two of them on the road to Emmaus. He even appeared
to over 500 people on one occasion! He again appeared to His disciples by the Sea
of Galilee. He cooked them breakfast and ate with them. Jesus restored Peter. Even
though Peter had failed Jesus, Jesus forgave him and would use Peter in mighty
ways. Jesus’ disciples were with Him when He ascended to Heaven. Jesus told them
to go into all the world and make disciples, to baptize them, and to teach them. Jesus
told them He would be with them always. After Jesus ascended two angels appeared
and told them Jesus would return again soon! (Matthew 28:16-20; Luke 24:13-51;
John 20:11-21:25; Acts 1:1-11)

The disciples were given a commission to spread the Good News. God used those
men to change the world! God even used another man, Paul, who had formerly killed
believers to preach the Word and start churches!

Jesus came to earth to be born of a virgin, to die on the cross for our sins, to be
buried, and to rise bodily on the third day. Death could not hold Him! He rose to give
us eternal life! Jesus didn’t do this for Himself. He lived in poverty. He was homeless
during His ministry. He had nothing of earthly value. He died a horrendous death that
we cannot even imagine. He died for those who loved Him. He died for the Pharisees
and Sadducees who were so full of pride who didn’t believe He was the Messiah.
He died for the chief priests who wanted Him dead. He died for His disciples who
followed Him, but didn’t always get it. He died for the thieves on the cross on either
side of Him. He died for Judas who betrayed Him. He died for me. He died for you.
How will you respond?

John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that
whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.”

John 20:31 “But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the
Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in His name.”

12

“How Deep the Father’s Love for Us”

How deep the Father’s love for us,
How vast beyond all measure,
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure.
How great the pain of searing loss –
The Father turns His face away,
As wounds which mar the Chosen One
Bring many sons to glory.

Behold the man upon a cross,
My sin upon His shoulders;
Ashamed I hear my mocking voice
Call out among the scoffers.
It was my sin that held Him there
Until it was accomplished;
His dying breath has brought me life –
I know that it is finished.

I will not boast in anything,
No gifts, no power, no wisdom;
But I will boast in Jesus Christ,
His death and resurrection.
Why should I gain from His reward?
I cannot give an answer;
But this I know with all my heart –
His wounds have paid my ransom.

A NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR

Thank you for spending the last nine days looking at Christ’s final days on earth.
God had a plan, and His plan is always perfect. Christ came down from Heaven to
give His life as a sacrifice for our sins. He willingly gave His life so we might live. His
love is so deep and so wide. There is no limit to His love. None of us are worthy of His
love. If left to ourselves, we would destroy ourselves. Our only hope is in Jesus. We
cannot earn His love. It’s not about what we can do for Jesus. It’s all about Jesus and
what He did for us. Because of what Jesus did for us, we can have a close, personal
relationship with Him. We can spend eternity with Him.

What is Jesus doing right now? He is at the right hand of God, and He is praying for
us. (Romans 8:34) He is preparing a home in Heaven for us. (John 14:1-4) How can
we know we will spend eternity with Jesus? We need to realize there is nothing we
can do to earn our salvation. The good news is that Jesus came to earth to pay the
price for our sin. He died on the cross, was buried, and rose to life on the third day.
Jesus is the only way! (John 14:6) Jesus lived the life we couldn’t live and died the
death we should have died to save us and rescue us. That news changes everything!

You may think you’re too far gone to have a relationship with Jesus. Maybe you’ve
failed Him. There is absolutely nothing we could do that the blood of Jesus can’t
cover. How often are we like Peter, or the religious leaders, or even Barabbas? When
we are unfaithful, He is always faithful.

We would love to talk with you and show you how you can know Christ personally.
If you have any questions, please contact us at Bethesda Baptist Church at 317-
852-3101. You can also check out our website at ebethesda.org. If you don’t have a
church home, come join us! We are just a group of sinners desiring to know and love
Jesus more each day.
