Friday, March 29th, 2024

Resurrection Sunrise Service 6:30 – 7:15 am next to the Plaza

But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they went to the tomb, taking the spices they had prepared. And they found stone rolled away from the tomb, but when they went in they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus… “Why do your search for the living among the dead? He is not here, but has risen”

Join us for this special sunrise service as we celebrate the resurrection of our King. We will have a time of singing and scripture reading before our main Resurrection Sunday Services.

This service will be outside so please bring a chair.We are meeting in the Guest Parking Lot next to the Plaza.

Join us on Resurrection Sunday at 8:30am or 10:30am in the Sanctuary

Everyone is welcome for a time of worshipping our risen King through singing, scripture reading, and hearing from God’s Word.

We are hosting Sunday School classes for kids!

Good Friday Service at Golden Hills Community Church March 29

Thursday, March 28th, 2024

7:00 – 8:00 pm  |  Sanctuary

Good Friday is the day we remember our Lord’s death. It is so easy to take the significance of the cross for granted because we hear about it often. We see the image of the cross everywhere. This service is a chance for us to slow down and truly reflect on what Jesus’ sacrifice means. This will be a somber time of reflection and thankfulness as we consider what Jesus did for us.

Join us at Golden Hills Community Church, as we worship through singing, the reading of scripture and prayer.

We do not recommend that young children attend this service, as it will be dark and quiet. We are offering childcare for your children for this service. Please use this link to register your child. Registration is required at least 3 days before this event (March 25) for staffing purposes.

The church is located at2401 Shady Willow Lane in Brentwood. For more information about Holy Week visit www.goldenhills.org.

Holy Week: Maundy Thursday Service at Golden Hills Community Church March. 28

Wednesday, March 27th, 2024

7:00-8:00 pm in the Sanctuary

Holy Week is the period leading up to Resurrection Sunday (you may know it as Easter Sunday). From Palm Sunday through the rest of the week, important events were taking place that set this week apart from any other normal week. This space is dedicated to providing resources to help us learn more about these days so we can reflect on and appreciate the work Jesus has done for us!

Maundy Thursday is a day where we remember the night Jesus instituted the Lord’s Supper and taught His disciples about being a servant when He washed their feet. This is a time for us to reflect on what it means to be a servant, love others, and remember what Jesus’ sacrifice is all about.

Join us as we worship through singing, the reading of scripture, prayer, and partaking in the Lord’s Supper together.
