We all face moments when life feels overwhelming—when the news is bad, the waiting feels endless, or hope seems out of reach. But Easter reminds us that Jesus brings life into what feels lost, and hope into what feels dead. This Easter, we’ll look at the story of Lazarus and hear Jesus say, “I am the resurrection and the life.” It’s not just a statement about the past—it’s an invitation for you today!
 
If you’re looking for peace, for purpose, for a fresh start—you’ll find it here. Come as you are.
There’s a place for you this Easter at  First Free Rockford!
