Easter 2016

Approximately 2,000 years ago, Christ died for our sins; only to rise again in victory. On Easter Sunday, Hope Chicago Church celebrated his resurrection and remembered his sacrifice.
 The festivities started off with an inspiring sunrise service over Lake Michigan. The dawn greeted us as we boldly worshipped the Lord in the early morning light. The outdoor service was a beautiful way to honor Him, with the message provided by Daniel, one of our Moody Bible School students.






After the sunrise service, breakfast was hosted by one of our church members which allowed us to continue the fellowship and share in the joy of the Lord. Church service began with spirited worship that also incorporated a spoken word presentation of “The Word.”

Special performances were given by our children and members, which even included sign language. We welcomed six first time visitors to our services, with Pastor David enlightening us with His message.

The celebration continued after the service with a delicious potluck lunch, allowing all of us to enjoy the fellowship and thank the Lord for all he has given us. The Lord provided us with good weather and the children participating in an exciting outdoor Easter egg hunt.

 All in all, it was a wonderful way to spend the day celebrating the love for our Lord Jesus Christ.
