Come gather together on Resurrection Morning to worship our living God!
The Westside Community Sunrise Service began in 1978 as an additional early morning gathering for Westside churches to celebrate the risen Lord together. It provides a unique tradition to experience the dawning of this special day and worship with others from the wider Body of Christ before later joining one’s local church’s Easter services.
HE IS RISEN INDEED!
