Why is Good Friday referred to as “good”? What the Jewish religious leaders and Roman authorities did to Jesus was definitely not good (see Matthew chapters 26-27). However, the results of Christ’s death are very good! Romans 5:8, “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” 1st Peter 3:18 tells us, “For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive by the Spirit.”
We will be celebrating Good Friday with a subdued service on March 29th at 3:00pm. We will be remembering Christ’s death with solemn hymns, prayers of thanksgiving, a brief message centered on Christ’s suffering for our sakes. For Christians this day called – Good Friday, should be ever on our minds because the death of Christ on the cross—along with His bodily resurrection is the paramount event of the Christian faith.
Join us for worship services during this most holy time celebrating and remembering why Good Friday is good and what Easter morning means you and I as we believe in – One Lord, one faith, one baptism; One God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all (Ephesians 4:5).
God Bless, Pastor Chris
Easter can be summed up in about seven words. “He is not here; He is risen!” ( see Luke 24: v 6). These words are some of the most profound and encouraging in human history. Easter focuses on one man, Jesus of Nazareth; who paid the penalty for our brokenness, who died on our behalf, was buried and was resurrected from the dead – ushering into the world hope and new beginnings. Jesus’ resurrection has forever changed the history of the world and for all who believe in Him has brought to them a new relationship with God, becoming his people!
Easter brings new hope, an opportunity for new beginnings, and the promise of eternal life for the one who believes in Jesus Christ. Easter is a message of infinite love for all humanity and is THE message that God’s love is there for you and I to embrace and too live out daily.
We offer two services to fit your schedule:
We have an Easter Breakfast following our Sunrise service at 8:00am. Join us to celebrate our Risen Lord!
