You're Invited

Easter at Eastside is designed with you in mind, whether you've attended church before or not. From the moment you arrive, you'll be greeted by friendly faces, engaging worship, and a message centered on hope and new life. We would be honored to celebrate Easter with you.

What to Expect

We want to meet the real you! That means, wear whatever makes your comfortable. You'll see people wearing jeans and a t-shirt, polos, Easter dresses, and everything in between.

Try to arrive 15 minutes early, we'll help you get parked and will have free coffee and light breakfast available before worship starts. 

Our services last around 60 minutes.

Your kids will love it.

We've been working since last year to make Easter your child's favorite Sunday of the year. There will be an egg hunt, age appropriate teaching, and fun games!

From check-in to service, our team is here to help your family feel comfortable, cared for, and welcome.

Spend 60 Minutes of Your Easter With Us

We have two entrances to the church (one from US-52 and one from Catalpa Loop). When you arrive, our Pedestrian Safety Team will greet you and guide you to a parking spot. If you are visiting for the first time, turn on your flashers so our team can help! We have reserved handicap parking and several accessibility ramps. 

Let's be honest...life is better with coffee. When you walk through the front doors, you'll be welcomed into our atrium where you can find light refreshments, snacks, water, and coffee. 

After you walk through the atrium, you will see our eKids check-in area. If this is your first time checking in kids at Eastside, let the hosts that are standing at check-in know that it is your first time, so they can get your kiddos checked in and answer any questions you have. We have offerings for children from birth through 5th grade during services. Each class is structured with age appropriate teaching and activities. Safety is our top priority within eKids, so rest assured your children are being well taken care of while you get to experience church. If you have a child with sensory needs, they are welcome to join eBuddies, where we have a sensory room and a gross motor room. Learn more about eBuddies here. 

At Eastside, we call this Worship.  We will stand and sing along to roughly 20 minutes of band-led worship. 

We'll be learning about why we celebrate Easter, why the resurrection of Jesus matters in your life, and what God did for you through Jesus. Pastor Virgil will explain what salvation in Christ and water baptism mean, and extend an invitation for anyone to participate if they feel led.
