What’s your favorite part about celebrating Easter at your church?

We’re a youth church and that means a lot of our members are away in school for most of the year. The Easter holidays is one of the few times when everyone is around and we have a full house.

Share one cool way your church is spreading the word about Easter this year:

We’re doing a giveaway on our Instagram page. Two T-shirts are up for grabs.

Easter is a celebration of the essence of our faith. Its time to remind ourselves of Jesus’ crucifixion, His death, resurrection and the corresponding impact on our lives. What does Easter remind you of? 1. SHARE with us in a post- either photo or video. 2. Hashtag #Easter316. 3. Tag at least one friend and get them to follow us. 4. Be entered to WIN one out of two Church 3:16 branded tee shirts in our Easter giveaway. *Make sure your profile is not set to private to enter. Winners will be presented with their tee shirts during service on Sunday April 12th, 2015.

How do you keep your focus on the joy of Easter amid the stress of looming deadlines and long hours?

It can get really overwhelming at times, but our approach is to start early, prioritize, assign specific tasks with timelines and hold regular meetings to communicate updates.
