Easter Sunday 2025

April 20, 2025

The fullest service of the year. The sanctuary was at capacity and the overflow chairs were full — about 240 in attendance. Three baptisms (one young adult, two young children) made the morning especially meaningful.

The lily cross is a tradition stretching back to the church’s founding — built up Saturday afternoon by anyone willing to bring a lily.

  • Sunrise service in the garden — about 40 of us out before dawn.
