Easter Sunday: Love Wins!

This is our greatest celebration of the year! Easter Sunday at First Congregational Church of Bakersfield is a resounding "Yes" to life, hope, and the truth that love is the most powerful force in the universe. We don't just celebrate an event from the past; we celebrate a living reality that tells us new beginnings are always possible, no matter how long the winter has felt.

Our Easter service is a joyful, music-filled party where we celebrate that God’s love is wider and more inclusive than we could ever imagine. If you’ve been looking for a place where you can be fully yourself—your whole, beautiful, sacred self—then you’ve found it. Whether you are a regular, a visitor, or someone just looking for a reason to smile, our doors are wide open. Come celebrate the dawn of a new day where you are loved, you are seen, and you belong. Love wins!
