The first official day of spring 2024 was Tuesday, March 19th. I always thought that spring began on March 20th, but I recently learned that it always falls on either March 19, 20, or 21. Most years, the first day of spring lands on March 20, except if it's a leap year, like this year is. The next time it arrives on March 21 will be 77 years from now, in the year 2101. No matter the date, spring has sprung!
Condolences to the family and friends of Jacob Anthony Brumfield.

Mt. Hermon United Pentecostal Church
March 16th made 23 years that MHUPC has been under the amazing leadership of Bro. and Sis. Garcia, and what a blessing they have been! Sunday, we celebrated the 23rd pastoral anniversary during the morning service. Bro. Gary Byers was the guest speaker and accompanied by his wife, Sis. Nickie Byers. They are both currently serving as missionaries in Thailand. After the service, we all gathered in the fellowship hall for a potluck dinner. We are very thankful to have had the leadership and guidance of Bro. and Sis. Garcia over the past 23 years, and we pray for many more. It is amazing to see how much the church family has grown!
I hope you all have a wonderful week!
