HOLY WEEK AT LAKES CHURCH

Join us for Holy Week at Lakes Church as we prepare our hearts to celebrate the risen King, Jesus Christ!

Palm Sunday

March 29th

Join us for Palm Sunday as we remember the day Jesus entered Jerusalem and was welcomed as King.

At each of our seven campuses, we will gather for:

  • A powerful time of worship
  • A meaningful message about this important moment in Jesus’ journey
  • A time to begin Holy Week together as a church family

We’d love for you to be part of this special morning as we prepare our hearts for Easter!

Good Friday
In Remembrance

April 3rd

“In Remembrance” is an immersive walk-through experience featuring seven exhibits with tangible representations of Christ’s Passion—from the ancient olive tree of Gethsemane to the crown of thorns, silver pieces, whip, dice, nails, and cross.

The walk-through opens at 4:00 pm.

The Good Friday service in the Worship Center will be a reflective, family-style gathering with worship, Scripture, prayer, and communion as we remember Christ’s sacrifice together. This will be a meaningful opportunity for our entire church family to gather together and reflect on Christ’s ultimate sacrifice.

The service begins at 6:30 pm and will take place in the Worship Center.

Join us at our Downtown Lakeland campus for this meaningful evening.

24 hours of Prayer and Fasting

April 5th & 6th

Join us for 24 Hours of Prayer & Fasting as we commit to seek the Lord together through repentance, surrender, and asking God to move in our church, our city, and beyond.

From noon on Saturday, April 4 to noon on Easter Sunday, April 5, we’re inviting everyone across all seven campuses to commit to a full 24 hours of prayer and fasting. Wherever you are, at home, at work, or with your family, set aside intentional time throughout the day to seek Him.

As one church with one heart, let’s dedicate these 24 hours to covering Easter weekend in prayer and believing God for salvation, renewed hearts, and transformed lives. 

If my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.” 2 Chronicles 7:14

Sunday April 5th

Join us for Easter at Lakes Church!

Easter Sunday will be an exceptional Sunday as we celebrate Christ, The Risen King, with an incredible time of worship at each of our seven campuses. We look forward to sharing a special message from God’s word for you on this special day!

We hope you will join us this year to celebrate Easter at Lakes Church!

FAQ's

On Palm Sunday & Easter Sunday, childcare will be available at all campuses during the 9:30am and 11:00am services. No childcare will be available during the Good Friday service or In Remembrance walkthrough.

Wear whatever you feel comfortable in! Some people at Lakes like to dress up for Easter, while others come more casual. Either way, you won’t be out of place.
