News for Sunday, April 20, 2025 - Easter

Easter Sunday stands as the very cornerstone of our Christian faith, the radiant sunrise that dispels the darkness of Good Friday. It is the day we joyfully proclaim the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the tomb, a victory over sin and death that offers hope and new life to all who believe. This single event validates Jesus's divine nature and confirms the truth of his teachings, transforming him from a mere historical figure into the living Lord and Saviour. Without the resurrection, the sacrifice on the cross would be in vain, and our faith would lack its foundational power.

The significance of Easter extends far beyond a historical commemoration; it is a living reality that shapes our present and secures our future. Through Christ's resurrection, we are offered forgiveness, reconciliation with God, and the promise of eternal life. It inspires us to live with courage and purpose, knowing that even in the face of earthly challenges and mortality, we share in Christ's triumph. As we gather this Easter Sunday, let us celebrate this profound gift of grace and allow the transformative power of the resurrection to renew our hearts and strengthen our commitment to following Jesus.

Worship this Sunday

At SPPC, our celebration begins with the "Sunrise" Service at 8:00 a.m. at Cy Hampson Park (8891 Lochside Dr.). Rain or shine, warm or storm, we meet to read the Word, retelling the story of the empty tomb, and to sing songs of praise to our risen Lord. At 9:00 a.m., we gather in Molloy Hall at SPPC for our Easter breakfast (all are welcome!). And at 10:00 a.m., we join in worship of the risen Christ in the sanctuary. This Easter Sunday, we will also be celebrating the Lord's Supper. You can participate in person or connect with our community online via the livestream. The link is available here.

The Scripture readings are:

This week we also look forward to our choir singing of both the introit, He is Risen by Larry Skaggs, and the anthem, This Joyful Easter by Dale Grotenhuis.

May the Lord be with you all!
