Easter Sunday

  • First United Methodist Church of Arlington Heights 1903 East Euclid Avenue Arlington Heights, IL, 60004 United States (map)

Easter is the divine restart, breaking through the closed tombs of our lives and our world. This Sunday, we celebrate the risen Christ who has already rolled away the stone, inviting us to witness resurrection, recommit to justice, and live and love with bold hope. Join us as we proclaim together—Christ is risen, and love has the final word!

We will have two Easter Sunday services, at 9:30am and 11:15am, with an egg hunt and games for kids in between.

Roll Down, Justice!

At that time, declares the Lord,
    I will be the God of all the families of Israel,
        and they will be my people.

The Lord proclaims:
The people who survived the sword
    found grace in the wilderness.
As Israel searched for a place of rest,
    the Lord appeared to them from a distance:
I have loved you with a love that lasts forever.
    And so with unfailing love,
        I have drawn you to myself.
Again, I will build you up,
    and you will be rebuilt, virgin Israel.
Again, you will play your tambourines
    and dance with joy.
Again, you will plant vineyards
    on the hills of Samaria;
    farmers will plant and then enjoy the harvests.
The time will come when
    the watchmen shout from
        the highlands of Ephraim:
“Get ready! We’re going up to Zion
    to the Lord our God!”
— Jeremiah 31: 1-6
