Join us at 9:30AM as we celebrate Easter—the good news of Jesus’ resurrection and the hope of new life for all. This joyful service will be filled with uplifting music, meaningful worship, and the proclamation that love is stronger than death.
Together, we’ll hear the story of the empty tomb, pray, sing, and gather for Holy Communion as we celebrate the promise that God is always bringing new life—even in the places we least expect.
There will also be a special gift and activity for children, and as always, kids of all ages are welcome in worship.
Come celebrate with us and experience the joy of Easter morning in a welcoming and faith-filled community.

Join us at 6:30PM for a special candlelit Holy Week service as we journey together through the final hours of Jesus’ life. This unique service blends elements of Maundy Thursday and Good Friday, creating a meaningful and immersive experience of the story at the heart of our faith.
Through scripture, music, and moments of quiet reflection, we will move from the table of the Last Supper to the garden, the cross, and finally to the stillness of the tomb. Holy Communion will be shared as part of this sacred journey.
This service is designed to be reflective and powerful, with lighting, music, and storytelling helping to carry us through the unfolding story. It will conclude in silence, allowing space to sit with the weight of the moment as we wait for the hope of Easter morning.
All are welcome to come and experience this meaningful step in the journey of Holy Week.
We also invite you to celebrate Easter with us at Elk River Lutheran:

Join us at 10:30AM for contemporary worship as we enter into Palm/Passion Sunday—a service that holds both celebration and reflection. We’ll begin with the joyful waving of palm branches, remembering Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem and the energy and hope of the crowd.
Our children will share a Palm Sunday Game Show during worship, creatively bringing the story of the Last Supper to life. It’s a fun and meaningful way to experience the story together and see it with fresh eyes.
As the service unfolds, we’ll turn toward the Passion story—walking through the final hours of Jesus’ life. This powerful shift reminds us that the road to Easter passes through real suffering, love, and sacrifice.
You’re invited to participate fully: sing with the band, engage the message, pray together, and receive Holy Communion—a tangible reminder that God’s love meets us right where we are. Come as you are.

Join us this Sunday at 8:30AM for traditional worship as we mark Palm/Passion Sunday—a day that begins with celebration and moves toward the cross. Together, we’ll wave palm branches and join the crowds who welcomed Jesus into Jerusalem with shouts of praise and joy.
During worship, our children will lead us in a creative Palm Sunday Game Show, helping us explore the story of the Last Supper in a playful and engaging way. It’s a meaningful reminder that this story is for all generations—and that faith can be both joyful and deeply rooted.
As the service continues, the tone will shift as we hear the Passion story—the account of Jesus’ betrayal, suffering, and death. This movement from celebration to solemn reflection invites us to walk with Jesus through the fullness of Holy Week.
You’re invited to participate fully in worship: sing beloved hymns, pray together, hear God’s Word, and gather for Holy Communion, where Christ meets us with grace and love. All are welcome.
