Easter Together
Let's share Easter with a friend!
During this season of isolation, many of us crave human connection more than ever. God created humans to need intimacy with one another and with Him.
EASTER TOGETHER is our call this year to invite others into a deeper connection with ourselves as well as with the One who gives life. During this season, we not only hope to invite friends to an event, but into relationship, a relationship that keeps on growing long after Easter has passed.
Invite a friend to experience Easter together with you this year. You can either invite them to the official Good Friday service over Zoom or we will give you the tools to plan your own gathering.
See options and suggestions below:
