Easter Sunrise service at Piney Grove UMC

Piney Grove UMC is a warm happy place. The bright smiles can help you feel right at home. Here are some photos from our Easter Sunrise service. It started at 7:00 a.m.-ish with a gathering in front of the decorated cross. We held a time of devotion and then headed inside for a great breakfast. Sunday school and our regularly scheduled worship came next. Being with committed Christians is always a peppy upbeat occasion. Easter gives us the greatest reason to get together at Piney Grove UMC in Athens, Tennessee.

Breakfast gave us an opportunity to fellowship and shake off the cool sunrise air. Our menu for today was scrambled eggs with cheese, pancakes,blueberries, fruit topping, sausage, ham and bacon! Is your mouth watering yet? No? I bet it will when I tell you that we had orange juice, apple juice, milk and coffee! Anytime that you get up this early coffee is a must.

Now I realize that some people may not have been able to come. That's okay because you have the chance to join us next Sunday at 10:00 a.m. We won't guarantee breakfast but we can guarantee warm hearts, hearty smiles and a big welcome.

  1. We want to thank Pastor Gayle for her prayer and anointing and our church family for praying for us as we start a new year of rodeo ministry. Having an opportunity to come together and pray for the ministry God has entrusted to us was a special blessing this Easter Sunday.
    Love you and will see you guys in three weeks! Unless Randy decides he likes water and the beach -- never been to a rodeo at the beach before :).
    Blessings, Randy and Martha
