Easter is not just a day, but an ongoing witness to the Good News that Christ has risen! And so we move into the Eastertide season carrying our hopes and our prayers for peace and justice throughout the world. We live in the faith that Christ is risen and present among us; through the power of the Holy Spirit, Christ lives in every act of love, courage, and mercy with which we care for the earth and one another.
Join us for worship on Sunday mornings at 9:30 am in this Eastertide season, and check us out at bellevillefirstucc.org!

No matter who you are or where you are on your life journey, you are welcome here.

"Hosanna! Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord!"

Tomorrow our Palm Sunday procession begins at 9 am in Library Park and proceeds to First UCC where we will gather for 9:30 am morning worship. Come a little before 9 to get your palm branch and greet "Sarge" the donkey who will accompany us on the walk.

Our youth led a beautiful worship service on Sunday - a "Pilgrimage" through the stories of Holy Week with readings, symbols, songs, (and a little bit of high drama!). We are so proud and grateful for their extraordinary expressions of faith. Here are just a few pictures from our Holy Week Pilgrimage.

And this Sunday, join us at 9 am in Library park for a Palm Sunday procession to First UCC - live donkey ("Sarge") included! Morning worship will follow at 9:30 am. No matter who you are or where you are on your journey in life and faith, God's welcome awaits you here!

All are welcome to this Ash Wednesday worship service tomorrow night, led by pastors and congregations of First UCC and Grace UMC in Belleville. The ashes we will use were prepared by youth from our churches, who gathered together to burn the palm branches from last spring's Palm Sunday. Let us enter into the Lenten season in community: “Beloved child of God from dust you have come, to dust you shall return, created, blessed, forgiven and loved.”
