This Week At Bethel April 2, 2026 This Sunday Church Family News Announcements Community News Calendar Bulletin Archive This Sunday This weekend, we celebrate Easter hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ. On Good Friday at 6 pm, we journey together through a service in shadows, beholding the passion of the cross. This service invites us to reflect on Jesus’ last words in the Gospels and how the sacrifice of the cross guides us to die to ourselves, following Jesus’ example. On Easter Sunday at 10 am, we claim that Christ is risen. Through his victory over death, we receive real power, hope and purpose now that we have been brought into the kingdom of heaven. As part of our worship on Easter Sunday, we will celebrate by decorating the resurrection cross symbolizing the new life we have in Christ. The message on Sunday will focus on John 5:24-25, Luke 24:1-12: “From Death to Life.” For past messages, subscribe and follow our podcast: discoverbethel.com/podcasts Our Sunday Offerings: BETHEL MINISTRIES AND MISSION : The ministries and programs of Bethel EDMONTON FOOD BANK: provides food, free of charge, to those experiencing hunger through a variety of effective distribution methods throughout the city.
