Easter celebrates the resurrected Christ in our midst. On Easter morning, we celebrate with a Festal Eucharist. The church is adorned in color to celebrate Christ.
Easter Sunrise Service, 6:00 AM at the CT River Museum (weather permitting)
This is a perfect service for welcoming the community and sharing the Easter celebration with our neighbors. It is beautifully timed to enjoy the first Eucharist of Easter Sunday just as the sun is rising over the river. For those attending, please bring your own chairs.
