What does Easter Sunday mean to you?

Going to an Easter Sunday Service with boyfriend, what should I expect?

  • Answer:

    Pastor will start by saying "Christ is risen" and the congregation responds "He is risen indeed" The service will then continue with the order of service in the hymnal. Just follow along with your boyfriend. Don't feel obligated to say the liturgy if you don't believe it. Just stand when everyone stands and sit when eveeyone sits. There will also be 3 Bible readings, then the sermon. This will be followed by offering, and Holy Communion. During Communion, remain in your seat, while boyfriend goes to the altar. No one is going to say or think anything. As many more people than usual will be attending, do plan on the service taking about 90 minutes.

I don't know how the Lutherans do it, but the Catholic Easter mass is always the longest of the year. There's an extended Gospel reading about the entire Passion. It's the most boring thing I have ever experienced. Lutheran mass is obviously going to be different, but prepare yourself for the possibility.

Expect do know that Christ died so your sins can be removed and on the first day of the week His grave was found empty and that His resurrection is celebrated throughout the world since it gives us hope of being with Him when He come back to reign and afterward in Heaven/Paradise. Use the time in church to seek God through the selfless, never failing love of His Son. God Bless

Being that I am Catholic and have ever been to a lutheran service. I wouldn't be able to tell you. I understand that both denominations have similarities so then it should be a very up beat joyous affair because it is a celebration. Enjoy it and relax.

Just enjoy his company. It doesn't matter if you don't go along with the religious stuff, I'm sure he'll appreciate the fact that you've made the effort.

A Bible reading of the Easter Story, and prayers, and songs. This will go on usually for more than an hour.

Mathew

Just focus on God and enjoy the service.
