Jews For Jesus Presents: The Passover Seder
Join us at Faith Presbyterian Church for this intesting event.
THE SEDER is the religious ceremony, which tells the story of Passover. It's a family-oriented service, which explains the meal. There really isn't anything comparable to it in modern Christian tradition. If you've never been to one, it might best be described as a service where the entire family is gathered around the dinner table, the story of Passover is told, and symbolic items are tasted by the family to remind them of lessons to be learned through the Passover celebration. On a Seder Plate, there are six compartments to hold the food, which help tell the story of redemption.
Come and Learn about the meal, which was the setting for the Lord’s Supper.

Brian has emerged as one of the finest voices in inspirational Christian music. His dramatic solo interpretations thrill, inspire and move his listeners. Whether Brian is ministering in his hometown church, or sharing in the national ministries of Youth for Christ, Fellowship of Christian Athletes, In Touch Ministries, Love Worth Finding, Turning Point Ministries or others, Brian's vocal quality is matched only by the depth and sincerity of his spirit. His genuine love for God, his family and those around him is evident in all that he does.
Since beginning his full-time ministry fourteen years ago, Brian has completed four solo recordings including arrangements produced and orchestrated by seven-time Grammy nominee Mr. Lari Goss. These recordings minister to the hearts and souls of all who hear them and have been played across the country on numerous radio stations.
