EASTER MORNING

Easter Sunrise Service, April 17, 6 30 a.m. Zilker Clubhouse

Central Presbyterian Church, Deliberately Diverse and Fully Inclusive, will host its Easter Sunrise Service, April 17, 6:30 a.m. 200 Arnulfo Alonso Way. All are welcome to attend this worship experience inspired by the wonder of creation, the melody of flutists and an empowering message of hope. As the sun rises over the city, we will celebrate God’s love that rises as we worship and serve together. In case of inclement weather, the service will be held in the Zilker Park Clubhouse. 

Easter Breakfast Celebration, 9:30 a.m.

Our Easter festivities continue at Central Presbyterian Church with a breakfast feast provided by our Deacons. All are welcome to join us in Smoot Hall.

9:30 a.m.  Easter Carnival. 

While everyone enjoys a delicious breakfast before worship, children (and the young at heart) will delight in games and crafts at our Easter carnival. Please bring a flower to decorate the cross that will stand in the courtyard.

10 a.m.  Flowering of the Cross

11 a.m.  Easter Communion Service. 

We’ll lift our alleluias to the rafters as the choir leads us in joyful song and the mystery of Christ’s resurrecting power is proclaimed.

Now Available: CPC T-Shirts
The Stewardship Team invites you to purchase our new 2022 shirt.  Because we are all separated physically so often these days, we want to provide you all with a tangible way to feel connected to your church community. These shirts are available for purchase on Bonfire.com. Several different styles are available. We’ve tried to keep the cost of these shirts as low as possible. There is a tiny profit built in and all those proceeds will be sent from Bonfire back to CPC. If you do buy a shirt, we encourage you to wear it out in the world to help remind the universe that we are here with open arms.
