Join Online

Easter Morning: 10:15 a.m.—We will begin outside with the kindling of the new fire used to light the paschal candle. The microphones will be on for the 10:15 a.m. kindling of the new fire so our on-line worshipers can hear but they will not be able to see us until we arrive inside about 10:30 a.m.

Bring Flowers for the flowering of the cross which will be outside, near the place where we re-kindle the new fire.

At 10:30 a.m.—There will be a silent procession into the church with a single voice proclaiming “The light of Christ.” three times. The congregation responds “Thanks be to God” each time.

Bring a Bell: We Invite everyone (especially children) to bring a bell to ring at the place in the service where we announce the resurrection. Place something like a paper towel in the bell so it is kept silent until the appropriate moment.

Following the 10:30 a.m. service—Signs of the Resurrection Scavenger Hunt. All the youth are invited to participate in a scavenger hunt on the church grounds. There will be two sections: one for the littles and one for older youth.

The Easter Joy Continues…
Sunday April 12 we will celebrate the Easter season in a different way.  Come to the 10:30 a.m. service to see how joyful we can be!

The April Celtic service will be on April 12.
