Easter Eggstravaganza

march 23rd 10 AM-noon | Gym | EGG Hunt Outside

This is a safe, family-friendly event. Bring your Easter baskets and join us for some fun! The Egg Hunt will be at 11:00 am and will be divided into 4 age-defined areas so everyone will be able to hunt eggs.  The separate areas are “3 and under,” “Pre-schoolers,”  “Kinder-2nd,” and “3rd-5th.” 


Before and after the egg hunt, there will be games, activities, face-painting, crafts, and snacks set up for kids to enjoy. The event includes a ventriloquist show from the much sought-after "Nancy and Her Friends,” one showing at 10:15 am, and the other at 11:30 am. 


Come and enjoy as we celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus!

Palm Sunday

March 24th 8:30 AM Traditional & 11 AM Contemporary | Sanctuary

Palm Sunday is the day we remember and celebrate Jesus’s entry into Jerusalem as Savior and King. Riding into town on a donkey, a large crowd gathered and laid palm branches down along the road, some even laid down their cloaks, giving Jesus the royal treatment. Hundreds of people shouted "Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest heaven!"


KIDS ARE INVITED TO JOIN US IN THE WELCOME CENTER 10 MINUTES BEFORE SERVICE TO PROCESS WITH PALM BRANCHES DURING WORSHIP


Childcare is available for ages 0-5 years.

Maundy Thursday

March 28th 6:30 PM | Sanctuary

Holy Thursday, also known as Maundy Thursday, is the first of the three days of solemn remembrance of the events leading up to and immediately following the crucifixion of Jesus. The English word "Maundy" comes from the Latin mandatum, which means "commandment." On Holy Thursday, we recall the events in the Upper Room where Jesus shared the last supper with his disciples.


The focus of the Maundy Thursday service is prayer and reflection on the Last Supper. Service begins at 6:30 PM and consists of songs, Scripture readings, and Holy Communion.


Childcare is available for ages 0-5 years.
