Easter Service in German Language
Our festive services in German takes place at noon, also at 77 Columbia St. We will sing traditional classical like, “Christ ist erstanden” and celebrate the resurrection of our Lord through the cultural idiom of German Lutheranism. There is a bilingual Children’s Church available for the little ones, so that they get to have fun as well and encounter the story of Easter on their level, with playful actives and crafts and lots of movement and laughter! Between the English at 10:00 am and German service at 12:00 pm, we will also have an Easter egg hunt for the little ones (about 20 minutes). Make sure you don’t miss it!
