Next Service

Expect the Impossible (an Easter Sermon)

March 31, 2024

Amid sorrow, how do we find hope? By remembering that story is not over.

As we continue with part two of Jesus’ story, after his betrayal, suffering, and execution, when the women came to look for Jesus in the tomb they found that the impossible had happened: he was gone.

Last week, together, we shared in our collective lamentation for the realities of our world. This week, we move to joy and celebrate, because as people of faith, we can expect the impossible, too.

Neshama Alheem joins us as our special musical guest, bringing the celebration of Gospel Music to this joy-filled service this Sunday.

Children and youth in grades pre-k through 12th will be meeting in person in their classes after being present in the sanctuary for the first part of the service. The nursery is available for babies and children from 6 weeks to 5 years old during the entire service period. You may choose either option for your child if they are 4.5 or 5 years old.

Masks are optional in the sanctuary.

Wildflower Church is a deliberately inclusive, lay-led, open-minded religious community in the Unitarian Universalist tradition, growing spiritually together, spreading love, justice, and joy! We create our community by covenanting one to another, using our Covenant for Beloved Community. We meet in South Austin, at our shared campus.

Wildflower Covenant for Beloved Community

The spirit in me welcomes the spirit in you, in all our wholeness and imperfection.

We celebrate our connections and our differences.
We actively seek to create equity as we build relationships with one another.
We care for one another and for ourselves.
We listen to others with respect and open hearts, intending to understand.
We speak to others with respect and kindness, intending to be understood.
We make every effort to settle differences directly and openly.
This beloved community is our spiritual home: we all share our gifts to build it.
We commit to be in covenant and to be called back into covenant.
