On Easter our church will not be able to gather in-person as we traditionally do. This is heartbreaking because COVID-19 has many people looking for answers to life’s deepest questions and wondering if there is any hope. This, more than ever, is the time for the church to rise up and proclaim the message of the resurrection. But how can we do this when we are not allowed to meet?

We believe this obstacle is actually an opportunity — an opportunity to share the gospel with far more people than we typically would on Easter and to empower you to be the primary heralds of that good news. 

Imagine….

We help equip you to share your testimony, then, on the week leading up to Easter, we all post our sixty-second videos on social media with the hashtag #JesusChangedMyLife. People all over our city, quarantined in their homes and scrolling on their phones, would see a flood of stories about how the resurrected Jesus brings purpose and meaning and hope. One click on the hashtag and they could see hundreds of Sacramentans — just like them — from churches all across the Sacramento Region talking about how Jesus changed the trajectory of their lives!

The best part is that all of us are the ones proclaiming the gospel. Furthermore, this will be a beautiful display of the unity of the church in Sacramento and around the world; it’s not one church’s “thing.” Rather, it puts all the emphasis on Jesus.

What's Your Story?

We’ve all heard the gospel called good news. But another way to translate that term is “the good story.”

Every one of us has a unique story to tell. One no one else can tell. Yet the hero in all those stories is the same — Jesus!

Then post your story any time April 6-12 with the #JesusChangedMyLife hashtag and your church’s handle to connect viewers to a local church (i.e. #JesusChangedMyLife @FremontPres) where they will be invited to an join an online Easter gathering, hear the gospel preached, learn how to respond with faith, and find how to get connected with a local church.
