Happy Easter Weekend! There's a lot packed into the next couple of days, and we don't want you to miss a thing!
It all starts tomorrow, as we gather with other local churches for a special Good Friday Service at Living Faith Church at 6:30pm (near San Marcos High School). We encourage you to come and reflect on the incredible sacrifice Jesus made for us.
Then on Sunday at 10:00 AM, join us for a joyful Easter Celebration right here at Community Covenant Church!
As a reminder, please be praying about the 2-5 people God may be placing on your heart to invite. We handed out invitation cards last week-use them as a simple and meaningful way to reach out. The worst that could happen? They say no. But the best? They encounter Jesus in a life-changing way.
And finally, after our Easter service, stick around for treats on the back lawn and our beloved Easter Egg Hunt for all kids 12 and under! This annual tradition brings so much excitement and joy to families in our church and neighborhood-it's a great opportunity to invite families to experience the love and joy of Easter together.
For more info on all our Easter happenings, please see the details below.
Thanks, and we can't wait to celebrate Easter with you!

Good Friday: A Night to Remember
As we journey toward Easter, Good Friday invites us to slow down and stand in the tension of the cross. It's a sacred space-a moment to remember the cost of love and the depth of grace.
This year, we're joining with churches across Santa Barbara for a shared night of worship, communion, and reflection. It's more than an event-it's a glimpse of the unity and hope we share in Jesus.
Friday, April 18

Come, and let your heart be shaped by the story that changes everything.
Easter Invitations - A Friendly Reminder
Last Sunday, we handed out a bunch of Easter invitation cards-and this is your reminder to use them this week!
These cards are a simple and meaningful way to invite your family, neighbors, and friends to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus with us on Easter Sunday, April 20 at 10:00 AM.
If you haven't already, take a few moments to pray about 2-5 people God might be placing on your heart to invite. These could be coworkers, neighbors, family members-anyone who could use some hope and encouragement this Easter.
A personal invitation goes a long way. Let's step out in faith and invite others to encounter the good news of Jesus!

Easter Egg Hunt - Sunday, April 20 (Immediately After the Service!)
Calling all kids! Our annual Easter Egg Hunt is just around the corner, happening right after our Easter Sunday service on April 20. It's always a joyful moment filled with laughter, excitement, and memories in the making.
We'll meet just outside on the back lawn for a colorful egg hunt that celebrates the fun and joy of the season.
This is a fantastic opportunity to invite families in your neighborhood to experience the love and joy of Easter at Community Covenant. Easter invite cards are available at the Connect Table-grab a few over the next couple of weeks and personally invite someone to join you.
