Christ is Risen!

We know visiting a church for the first time can feel a little overwhelming, but at Christ Lincoln, you are welcome just as you are. Whether you're exploring faith, looking for a fresh start, or simply curious about what church is like, we’d love to meet you. Holy Week is a powerful time to experience hope, renewal, and community, and we invite you to join us as we celebrate the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus. No matter where you’ve been or what your story is, there’s a place for you here. We can’t wait to welcome you!

Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week and is a day of both celebration and reflection. It’s the day we remember Jesus' arrival in Jerusalem, where crowds welcomed Him by waving palm branches and shouting “Hosanna!”—a cry of praise and hope. At our Palm Sunday services, we celebrate this moment with joyful worship, Scripture, and a time to reflect on the journey Jesus took to the cross. Whether you're familiar with the story or hearing it for the first time, you’re invited to experience the hope and promise of Palm Sunday with us at Christ Lincoln!

Maundy Thursday is a time to remember Jesus’ final night with His disciples before His journey to the cross. On this night, Jesus shared the Last Supper, washed His disciples’ feet as a sign of humble love, and gave a new command: “Love one another as I have loved you.” At our Maundy Thursday service, we gather to reflect on His deep love for us through Scripture, communion, and worship. It’s a powerful moment to pause, remember, and prepare our hearts for what is to come. We invite you to join us as we walk with Jesus through this holy night.

Good Friday is a day of deep reflection, as we remember Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross. It may seem like a day of sorrow, but it is also a day of incredible love—because Jesus willingly gave His life for us. Our Good Friday service is a time of prayer, Scripture, and contemplation, as we walk through the events of that day, from the betrayal to the crucifixion. But remember, Friday is good because Sunday is coming. You are invited to experience this meaningful night with us at Christ Lincoln.

Imagine the sorrow and confusion that filled the hearts of those who loved Jesus when they saw Him die. The One they had followed, the One who had healed, forgiven, and brought hope—now lifeless in a tomb. When the women came to the grave that morning, expecting to mourn, they found only emptiness. "He is not here," the angel declared. What must they have felt in that moment? Fear? Shock? But then came the words that changed everything: "He has risen, just as He said." Grief turned to joy, despair to hope, and death to life. This Easter, we celebrate that same hope—because Jesus is alive, and that changes everything.

This year during Lent, we’re diving into the powerful story of Exodus—a journey of deliverance, faith, and God’s unwavering promises. To help you reflect and grow during this season, we’ve created a special Lenten & Holy Week devotional filled with Scripture, sermon notes, reflection questions, worship songs, family activities, challenges, and more. Whether you’re walking through this season alone, with family, or in a group, this devotional is designed to deepen your faith, spark meaningful conversations, and prepare your heart for Easter. Follow along online or on Right Now Media — we can’t wait to take this journey together!
