Easter at Marina Green | Sunday, April 4 | 12:30pm
Easter is our most important day of the year as followers of King Jesus. It’s the day when we celebrate the fact that our Savior defeated death and rose from the grave. It’s the day we celebrate that he’s made a downpayment on our eventual resurrection.
As a church, we want to celebrate this amazing holiday together. We missed our first in-person Easter as a church last year because of COVID-19 and state regulations for shelter in place. This year, things have opened up a little. We still aren’t ready to meet indoors yet (just to be safe), but we are ready to see each other face to face as a church for the first time in what seems like forever.
So we are going to get together outdoors on Easter. Here is the plan: we are going to have our normal Sunday gathering online at 10:30am. I’d encourage you all to get up, make a nice Easter breakfast, and watch that on your TV or phone or however you normally stream it. Then jump in the car or on your bicycle and head on over to Marina Green and meet us for an Easter Church Picnic at 12:30pm. Towards the east side of the parking lot there is a white building (on google maps they call it a “Degaussing Station”). We’ll be on the lawn somewhere close to that building.
We are still going to be taking COVID precautions: We ask that you all wear masks and maintain social distance. We will also have hand sanitizer available. You are welcome you to bring something to eat (or grab some Philz coffee from the coffee truck), but if you do eat we ask that you be socially distanced from folks not in your household while you have to take off your mask. We know it’s a hassle, but we still aren’t out of the woods, and we don’t want to be the church that ends up on CNN because we all got each other sick.
Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions. I am personally really excited to see you all again and build up some momentum as a church as we move toward meeting in person again. But really, I’m excited about celebrating Jesus’ resurrection with you all. See you all on April 4th.
