Rising: An Easter Celebration
April 20, 2025, 10:30am
Side entrance on Ballard Street
8900 Georgia Avenue, Silver Spring, MD 20910
Please join us in person or via Zoom for our Easter celebration! Our Easter theme this year is “Rising” — We are rising with Jesus, and Jesus is always rising in us, through us, and ahead of us. This will be a service that is rooted, fresh, and full of energy. This is Easter that rises with us.
The Chancel Choir, with Lynne Joseloff, keyboard, will perform the Sacred Overture, “Lord God Be Praised” by Giovanni Gabrieli; “God is Gone Up with a Shout” by David Angerman and Joseph M. Martin; “Alleluia” by Randall Thompson; and, with Orchestra, the “Hallelujah Chorus” from The Messiah by G. F. Handel.
Pastor Matt will offer a sermon, “The Courage to Rise”, which invites us into the ongoing call to rise, even when we don’t have all the answers.
Here is bulletin for this Sunday. And here is the insert for this Sunday, which features all of our wonderful Easter Lily and Azalea dedications.
For those attending in person: There WILL be Church School and Little Lambs class this Sunday – including an Easter egg hunt during our class time!
For those joining us remotely, please join using our usual Zoom worship link, which is this one:
