Lakeside United Women in Faith are proud to present a night of improv comedy and silent auction!
Enjoy as Pastor Dan and his improv team, The Agreeables, put on a hilarious show that is completely made up on the spot!
You will also have the option to bid on some amazing items in the silent auction.
Tickets are $15, and all proceeds from tickets and the auction go to support local, regional, national, and international missions and ministries aimed at helping women, children, and youth.
You are invited to participate in experiential prayer stations that bring the stories to life and powerfully call us to remember the meaning of Christ’s final days before his death and resurrection.
Feel free to come anytime between 5:30-7:00pm. Most folks take about 20-30 minutes to engage the four stations.
Good Friday Worship Service
Head downtown to First UMC Sanford's beautiful sanctuary for a traditional Good Friday "service of darkness." This moving service engages multiple senses, as we hear, sing, and engage with the story of Christ's sacrifice for us.
First UMC Sanford is located at 419 S. Park Ave. in downtown Sanford. Street parking is available around the church.

Join us on the ultimate Alaskan adventure where northern lights glow over majestic mountains, racing rivers, and glistening glaciers. As kids trek the tundra, they’ll explore how easy it is to lose sight of what’s true in our wild world today. Pointing them toward Jesus, True North VBS shows them that he is a faithful friend we can always trust. He’s our True North!
