Life In His Name: Easter Weekend 2025

20Mar, 2025

On January 7th, 2024, we launched our sermon series in the Gospel of John. Over the past year, we have been immersing ourselves in the life, teachings, death, and resurrection of Jesus. By the time we reach Easter weekend, we will have spent the previous months walking through the Passion and Resurrection narratives, preparing our hearts to reflect deeply on Christ's sacrifice and victory over sin and death.

Our theme for Easter this year is "Life in His Name," drawn from John 20:30-31:

"Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book; but these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name."

This theme encapsulates the heart of Easter—through Christ's death and resurrection, we receive true life. We are excited to celebrate this together and to invite our friends, family, and neighbours to hear this life-transforming message. As a church, we desire to embody radical hospitality and meaningful connections by extending open invitations to all who need to hear the good news of Jesus. Who in your life needs to hear this message of hope? We encourage you to pray and invite them to join us for Easter this year.

Good Friday: A Time of Reflection
On Good Friday, April 18th at 10AM, we will gather to reflect on the immense cost Jesus paid to redeem us. Walking through John 19, we will remember his suffering, his love, and his ultimate sacrifice. This will be a special and reflective worship service, taking place in the gym, where we will pause to meditate on the weight of the cross and the depth of Christ's love for us.

Easter Sunday: A Joyful Celebration
Easter Sunday, April 20th, is a day of hope and celebration! Jesus has conquered sin and death, and through him, we have the promise of new and eternal life. The morning will be filled with joy as we gather for a church family pancake breakfast, followed by a worship service centred on the resurrection of Jesus. This Easter we will also celebrate baptisms, a powerful demonstration of new life found in Christ. We will hear testimonies of how Jesus continues to transform lives today. Above all, we will give glory to Jesus for all he has done.

Let's come together as a church family, invite those around us, and proclaim the life we have in his name!
