EASTER SUNDAY
9:00 am & 11:00 am
Join us as we celebrate the joy and hope of Easter together!
Bring a few flowers from your garden (or a flower shop) and as you arrive, help decorate our beautiful Easter cross—a vibrant symbol of new life and resurrection. It’s a simple, meaningful way for all of us to participate in the celebration.
We’ll also enjoy music from our beloved Easter pop-up choir!
Children are always welcome in worship as we rejoice in the good news of Jesus’ resurrection. For families who prefer it, childcare will be available at both services for babies through preschoolers. NCKids will host a festive Easter egg hunt for children after each service—don’t miss the fun!
We can’t wait to celebrate with you!
