Every year, Easter fills our church with neighbors, families, friends, and first-time guests.
 Be the Welcome!
Be the Welcome!

Our Easter volunteers play a special role in helping everyone gather, celebrate, and experience the love of Jesus.

Serve during one service. Worship during the other.
Together, we make room for everyone to celebrate Christ alive!

The Easter Cross

A favorite tradition at FBCA is the Easter cross!

The cross is constructed annually and filled by those who attend Easter morning services.  This is a gift to Alexandria and a reminder of what Christ did on the cross for us all.

  • Kindergarten-6th Grade: Sunday Groups will not meet. Children should attend the service with their parents.
