Easter | April 9
6:45 am Outdoor Sunrise Service
The Sunrise Service is an informal time to gather and celebrate the Resurrection of Christ. We will gather around the Columbarium behind the sanctuary along Orkney Road. We will sing a couple songs accompanied by guitar, hear the Easter story, and share our hopes for the new day. The service will be about 30 minutes.
9:00 am Worship Service
Join us as the band leads us in beloved Easter Hymns. We will read John’s version of the Easter Story and Pastor Tom will preach. We will have special gifts for the children and it will be a service filled with joy and celebration.
10:00 am Easter Egg Hunt and Petting Zoo
Search for Easter eggs and enjoy some in-person fun for all ages on the front lawn of the church with animals (rabbits and chicks and goats, oh my!) brought to you by Woodberry Crossing. The Easter bunny will stop by and we’ll retell the story of the first Easter together, as well.
11:00 am Worship Service
At the 11:00 am Service, the choir and organ will lead us in the Easter Hymns. Pastor Tom will preach on John’s version of the Easter Story. We will have gifts for the children and will rejoice together in the Resurrection of Christ.
