Here are some details to help you as you plan

First time joining us?

What will the service experience be like?

Palm Sunday - Service will be about 90 minutes and includes singing, prayer, baptism, and the retelling of Jesus' life, ministry, and arrival at Jerusalem.

Good Friday - A contemplative service of about 60-minutes that includes singing, prayer, communion, and the retelling of Jesus' suffering and crucifixion.

Easter Sunday - Within 60-90 minutes, we'll celebrate Jesus' resurrection and victory over sin through singing, prayer, baptism, and encouraging Bible teaching.

What is baptism?

Baptism is for anyone who has decided to follow Jesus. It's an outward declaration of an inner transformation of faith in Him, saying "YES!" to Jesus before God and your community.

During a baptism service, candidates are typically immersed in water, signifying their new life in Christ. Whether you’re being baptized or attending to support others, this service is a joyful celebration of faith, new beginnings, and the community of believers.

If you're interested in getting baptized, please speak with one of our pastors for next steps.

What if I have kids or youth with me?

There will be no separate program for children on Good Friday. Activity bags will be available for children staying with their parents in the service. There will be a room outside the auditorium available for families who need space to move around.

Children’s Sunday School will run as usual on Palm Sunday and Easter Sunday at 10:00am.

Do I need to register for any of the events?

No registration is required for any of the services or events.
