Easter 2023: An Unforgettable Weekend
Story Team •Easter is always one of the biggest celebrations we have here at Hoboken Grace and this Easter we had so much to celebrate! With a total of six services over Easter weekend, we were able to welcome in so many people from Good Friday to Easter Sunday!
Everyone at 301 Garden was buzzing with energy and excitement all weekend long!
Our First Impressions team was eager to welcome both familiar and new faces! It was encouraging to see so many of our church family inviting their friends, neighbors, and families to celebrate Easter with them at Hoboken Grace.
We had three different photo op’s that were set up for everyone to take pictures in front of (or behind the egg!). They were a big hit!
Pastor Chris walked us through a powerful message on how Easter is not just a resurrection moment, it is the launch of a resurrection movement! He shared how Jesus doesn’t want us to just celebrate His resurrection, He wants us to experience it!
Our band performed a special cover song of one of today’s top-hits, Anti-Hero, by Taylor Swift. So much preparation went into all of the songs that were sung on Easter weekend and so much hard work behind the scenes from the production team!
We couldn’t have thought of a better way to celebrate Easter weekend than with baptisms! We had the honor of seeing NINE people take the step of baptism with us over this weekend!! As we walked through the power of the resurrection and being made new because of what Jesus has done for us, it was such a special moment being able to witness all of the baptisms!
We were excited to hear that we even had family members flying from out of state to join us and their loved ones for their baptism!
Like always, we celebrated in a big way!
We also had a shop set up in the parent’s corner of new Hoboken Grace merchandise that was available during our Easter services! We launched our ‘we don’t just live here, we love here‘ t-shirts! You can still check out our merchandise by going to our app and clicking on ‘Hoboken Grace Gear’ on our Engage section!
We are beyond grateful to all of our teams who put in so much hard work into making this Easter weekend so special and memorable! This weekend would not have been possible without them! A lot of the teams even had people come in multiple times to help out and serve over Easter weekend! From our set up and tear down team, to Grace Kids having classes all weekend long, to our communications team running our social media- there is so much that went on behind the scenes to make this weekend so special!
