PASTOR’S MOMENTS |
Pastor Eddie B. Woodard
Good Morning Sunrise Family.
On Sunday (May 3rd), we resumed our Worship services at Sunrise Chapel. We are NOT currently having Sunday School , but we will have Worship at 10:30 am as usual. Out of respect for one another, we will refrain from hugs and handshakes and settle for smiles and waves for now. We will also do our very best to create safe space between each other, but our desire is to focus on Worshipping our Lord together. Our Wednesday Bible Study resumes on May 13th at 6pm. Our Celebrate Recovery resumes on May 14th at 6pm (NO MEAL AT 5:30 PM). Although I long to see our Church family together again, I also completely understand if you need more time before returning. Be Safe, Be Strong, and Be Blessed Pastor Eddie

Good Morning Sunrise Family
It has been four weeks since we Worshipped together at Sunrise Chapel. To be honest, it seems more like four months. Mrs. Mary and I have missed you all very much, but I am grateful to hear that many of you have continued to Worship through our website and YouTube channel. It is my sincere prayer and ambition to return to regular Worship at Sunrise Chapel on May 3rd. If our Governor dictates otherwise, then of course we will comply, but that is our target date. We cannot call this the end of the crisis, but rather the beginning of a new era for our Church family. We have been given a wonderful gift through all of this. The gift of our true identity and purpose. We will not be the same Sunrise. We will praise with more Passion. We will Pray with more Purpose. We will Preach with more Power. The Spirit of Revival is alive and well, and we are charged with the responsibility to Live Revived so the world can see Jesus in us. Praying for you all today and always. Be Blessed Pastor Eddie It is my hope that you and your family had a Peaceful Easter Weekend. It was truly difficult to preach an Easter message with no one else in the Lord’s House, but The Lord and myself. However, I was encouraged that the Word was received in many homes yesterday, and the Spirit of Easter was alive and well.
Although we still have a ways to go, I am hopeful that we will be allowed to assemble again soon. Until then let us not grow weary in well doing. Continue to send cards or phone calls to those that are on your minds and hearts. If you pass by our beloved Sunrise Chapel, pull in and pray for your Church family, and the end to this crisis. Stay in the Word for it alone brings comfort and Peace. Mrs. Mary and I thank each of you for your encouragement and well wishes, and we pray for you all daily. Make sure to check the website periodically for new songs or messages, and share them with others. This Revival Spirit is strong and we are seeing the fruits of years of labor. Stay strong, stay safe, and Be Blessed Pastor Eddie This morning I received an email from a Truck driver that passed through Shady Lawn Truck stop. What follows is his reaction to someone’s actions. We have been saying for over two years that the real Ministry is in the Wilderness. The highways and hedges of life. This proves that God honors His Word, even through our young children. Hello my name is Brent Lynn. I was born and raised in Columbia Tennessee. But now I live in Florida and Indiana. I was very very impressed last night when I walked into the Shady lawn truckstop and saw the little goodie bags that a little boy named Wyatt from your church had left for the truck drivers we own a pretty large carnival and we play a lot of spots up in Tennessee we actually play the Fayetteville fair Lincoln county fair later on in the summer if all this madness happening in the world today will go away but when I grab the bag and I took it back to my truck I saw that it was from a little boy named Wyatt in the second grade andeight years old and he said he went to your church I have a son that is nine years old and is also named Wyatt. I have shared this on my Facebook page and with all my members of my church up in Muncie Indiana called Rising Hope. And on a trucking site on face book also. Please let Wyatt and his family know how much the goodie bag and the note touch my heart. And let him also know that the Little Debbie snack cake was extra tasty knowing it came from Wyatt. And if all this goes away and we are still able to do the Lincoln county fair In Fayetteville that all the Rides will be on me!!! God bless. And thank you. Let’s all leave a comment to let Wyatt know how much his Sunrise Family supports his efforts. Thank you Wyatt for being Jesus to the World. Be Blessed Pastor Eddie Good Morning Sunrise
I pray that you had a great day of Worship Yesterday. Our Website has proven to be a valuable tool for us during this chaotic season. I wanted to let you know about our New YouTube channel. It is SUNRISE CHAPEL ELKTON TN. We will be posting all of the Worship and Messages on this site as well as our website. Getting the Word to as many as possible is very important right now, so spread the Word whenever you can. Mrs. Mary and I miss you all very much, but the Spirit of Sunrise was built for moments like this. We can never go back to the way things were, because this has changed us forever. We are stronger, wiser, and more determined than ever to see Revival in the Lord’s people. Stay Safe, Stay Stong, and Stay Blessed. Be Blessed Pastor Eddie Good Morning Sunrise Family
Tomorrow is our monthly Prayer Walk. Every first Saturday of the month since we began Sunrise, we have walked (or driven), and prayed over the city of Elkton and the area. This month we have been instructed to remain at home as much as possible. We do, however, have the privilege and Power to pray where we are. So I am asking our Sunrise Family to join us in prayer tomorrow morning. Between the hours of 8:00 am to 9:00 am, let us lift up our hearts to God. Praying for this World, our Nation, and our community. Praying for forgiveness, Mercy and Grace from our Lord. If possible get the entire family involved. Choose a special place in your home, or perhaps outside and make that your Alter of Prayer. Read 2 Chronicles 7: 13-15 and claim that promise. This will be our Prayer Walk for April. May it spark a Revival in our homes that will overflow into this dry and thirsty land. May the Lord richly Bless you today and always. P.S. Check out The Video FEAR by Zach Williams in the LIVE WORSHIP Section. Be Blessed Pastor Eddie I pray that this morning finds all of us well and in good Spirits. I had a few issues uploading the Wednesday Night Class, and I apologize for not having it loaded last night.
You can find it in audio form under the "Audio Messages" section. It is Spiritual Vision Pt. 7. The Handouts are under "Bible Study Handouts". Also I have linked a Youtube video that I think you will enjoy. it is under the "Live Worship Service Section". Praying God's richest blessings upon every home in the Name of Jesus. Amen Be Blessed Pastor Eddie |
