Worship - Easter Celebrations

He has risen! He has risen indeed! Easter morning is a glorious day of worship celebrating the resurrection of Jesus and what it means for each of us. YOU are invited!

7:00 AM: Outdoor Sonrise service with Holy Communion (in case of rain, service will be moved to the Sanctuary). After the service, enjoy coffee and treats.

9:30 AM: Praise service led by the McKendree UMC Praise Band - we’ll sing Easter favorites together.

11:00 AM: Traditional service with music from the choir, orchestra and handbells. *The congregation is invited to join the choir on the chancel for the Hallelujah Chorus at the end of the service.

Got kids? There's Nursery (Room N114) and Kids Zone (Room N119) during the 9:30 service. At 11:00 AM worship, children begin in the sanctuary and go to Sunday School (Room 317) after the Time for Young Disciples. And of course, Nursery is in Room N114.

We can’t wait to celebrate Easter with you!
