Easter
Easter at
St. Martin’s
"I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever has faith in me shall live, even though he dies; and no one who lives and has faith in me shall never die," (John 11:26-26)
Easter Day begins the Easter season, which runs for 50 days until the Feast of Pentecost. The liturgical color for the season is white, which is often complemented with gold. The color white represents joy and light.
Join St. Martin’s for the celebration of Easter! Enjoy a variety of Easter worship services that celebrate Jesus' victory over death and the joy of the resurrection.
