Easter at Highland
March 31 8:45 am - 12:00 pm | Highland Church of Christ
“On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women took the spices they had prepared and went to the tomb. They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning stood beside them. In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; he has risen!”
Luke 24:1-6
Join us on April 9th for Easter Sunday, a day where Christians all around the world celebrate the day Jesus arose from the dead. Easter is a celebration of new life through Jesus, and we are excited to celebrate with you.
Our worship services are at 8:45 (a cappella) and 11:00 (instrumental)
Bible Classes will not meet so that we can visit at a reception in the Atrium between worship services.
At both our north and south entrances we will have an opportunity for everyone to place a flower on the cross. The flowering of the cross represents the transition from Good Friday to Easter, from meditation on Jesus’ death to joyful celebration of his resurrection. The tradition transforms a barren cross, a reminder of Jesus’ death, into an Easter symbol. Covered with fresh, living flowers, the cross serves not only as an emblem of Jesus’ resurrection but also of the continuing presence of Christ among today’s Christians.
