Good Friday
Good Friday is proof that we serve a God who knows our pain. Jesus took on our sin and suffering on the cross. Before he died, he prayed a simple prayer: “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing” (Luke 23:34).
Come experience a unique worship service with creative elements, communion, and a powerful message about the cross.

Resurrection Sunday
2,000 years ago, Jesus was crucified and laid to rest in a tomb – but he didn’t stay there! Three days later, he performed the greatest miracle of all and he rose from the dead, proving that he is the Son of God. This resurrection isn’t merely a historical event; it carries deep significance for us today. When we say ‘yes’ to Jesus, we receive new life! Join us on Easter as we celebrate the resurrection and the One who brings us back to life.

The Resurrection Story
Jesus rose from the dead over 2,000 years ago, but that news is still as wild and shocking and deeply relevant today as it was in the first century.
The world was then - and is now - full of chaos. Between sickness, wars, poverty, and the endless cycle of pain, it can be easy to feel overwhelmed. Many of us have never felt less control of our lives than we do today. But Jesus came into this chaos with a plan. He lived a perfect life, He died on a cross, and He conquered death by miraculously rising from the grave three days later. And He did this all so that we could receive new life - so that we could walk in resurrection power - so that we could be a living, walking miracle!
Romans 8:11 tells us, And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead lives in you, then he who raised Christ from the dead will also bring your mortal bodies to life through his Spirit who lives in you.
This means that the same incredible power that brought Jesus back to life is at work in us, offering us new life and strength every day!
Life may feel heavy and hard and overwhelming sometimes, but we aren’t doing this on our own. This is the mystery of the gospel. Jesus, who is God-with-us, will fill us with resurrection life if we ask.
Our Easter service is a joyful celebration of the resurrection of Jesus Christ with great music and a relevant, practical message. Our gatherings are for everyone. Whether you have a more traditional church background or none at all, you’ll feel right at home at Legacy City.
