Easter 2025
Sunday, April 13th, we will gather at Ministry Park (27 2nd Ave.) at 4 p.m. for a Palm Sunday Party! Because Jesus is King!
We will start right at 4 p.m. sharp with singing, teaching, and celebrating baptisms. Our parties are generally drop-in, but since this has a worship service attached to it, we will be starting right at 4:00, so feel free to come early to get parking and a seat. This helps support our members who are serving and getting baptized. Then, after worship, we will serve food, play on inflatables, and have an easter egg hunt for our church and some friends from the neighborhood. Think of it as part worship service, part block party.
On Friday, April 18th, at 7 pm, we will have our Good Friday Communion Service. This is a simple service with singing, scripture reading, a time of prayer, and sharing the Lord’s supper. There is child care available for kids 3 years old and younger.
On Easter morning, our worship service is as normally scheduled with kids' ministry downstairs. We will have a big, celebratory worship service praising Jesus for rising from death!
When you come on Easter morning, be sure to pick up a flower from the welcome table. They will be used in an element of the adult worship service (kids will get their own flowers when they check in downstairs).
At the end of the service, our new Spring issue of Saltbox Quarterly will be available for pick up! And, there will be a photo booth outside between the sanctuary and the store front. We hope this helps you remember this special day of celebration and praise with your friends and family.
On Easter morning, everything we take in from the offering plate will be given to our dear friends and partners at Sammy’s Mission (sammysmission.org). David Carson, who runs Sammy’s Mission, was once homeless in the Poe Mill area, battling addiction. Through a series of providential circumstances, he checked into the Miracle Hill Overcomers Program and got sober. He and his wife, Mandi, now run 5 Christian-based transition homes for men seeking recovery here in Greenville. We want to do all we can to help.
