Easter: Not Just Another Box To Check

With all the busyness of spring—sports, school, schedules—it’s easy to treat Easter like just another holiday on the calendar. But this year, I invite you to slow down and make Easter more than just a box to check. Let this be a season when your family truly reflects on Jesus—His love, His sacrifice, and the victory of His resurrection. We want to help you create meaningful moments together as a family that are centered around what Easter is all about.

We’re offering a special Easter Story Activity Kit for every family to make this season impactful for all ages. Inside each kit, you’ll find:

10-Day Family Devotional with Scripture

Walk through the story of Easter—Jesus’ plan, His life, His death, and His resurrection—in an engaging and age-appropriate way.

Mini Family Activities and a Special Three-Part Activity

These simple and fun activities are designed to fit into your family’s everyday routine, helping you connect spiritually and emotionally, no matter how full your calendar is. We’ve also included a larger family experience (with supplies provided!) to help create a lasting memory.

Discussion Questions for All Ages

From preschool to high school, these questions are crafted to spark honest, faith-centered conversations at the dinner table, in the car, or during bedtime.

Easter is an incredible opportunity to grow closer—not just to God, but to each other as a family. These kits are a great way to help you do both. You can pick them up in Hildreth Hall or the nursery before or after service.

We’d also love for your family to join us during Holy Week. Each gathering is designed to help us experience the story of Jesus in a powerful and memorable way.

A Season to Reflect—and Invite

Easter is the foundation of our faith. It’s a reminder that death doesn’t have the final word and hope is alive. It’s also one of the best times to invite a friend, neighbor, or coworker to come and experience God’s love authentically. Easter is the perfect time to reach out. Who’s one person or family you can invite to join you this year? Whether it’s for the egg hunt, the Tenebrae service, or Easter morning worship—your invitation could change someone’s life.

Let’s not just go through Easter…

Let’s live it. Reflect on it. Share it.

Let’s make it about Jesus.

We hope to see you and your family this Easter season.

“He is not here; He has risen, just as He said.” – Matthew 28:6
