Mars Hill Downtown Easter: Music, Baptisms, and the Glory of God

Easter Sunday was an absolutely amazing day as we saw the Spirit move mightily, as people were giving their hearts to Jesus, getting baptized, and confessing sin. It reminded me of Acts 2:1-11 when the Spirit moved in a miraculous way and many people were saved. We are rejoicing that 1324 people came to church at Mars Hill Downtown and 36 got baptized! Including Good Friday we had 2000 show up for the weekend. This looks to be the largest church gathering in downtown Seattle in decades. Praise God!

When we began Mars Hill Downtown, we believed that God would work, and He is truly doing that. The number of people that got baptized on Sunday was the size of the original core group of MHDT two years ago! Jesus is surely building his church. We saw people of every status, race, and background get baptized and trust Jesus for their lives.

In 1 Corinthians 15:17, Paul says, And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins. The good news is that Christ has been raised and salvation from sin is a reality for those whom he has saved. We dont just celebrate this on Easter Sunday. Every Sunday is Resurrection Sunday! When we gather to worship, it is a gathered party celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
