From Maundy (Holy) Thursday through Easter Sunday, local churches in Door and Kewaunee counties hope you join them for the celebration of the Resurrection.

The extra services and holiness of the holiday make Easter the busiest time for pastors and one of the most attended of the liturgical year. In Kewaunee, Immanuel Lutheran Church Pastor Matthew Sprunger hopes people walk away from his services knowing that Jesus lived for us.

Pastor Joel McKenney of St. Paul’s Lutheran Church in Algoma says that Easter offers proof that sins are forgiven.

Father Daniel Schuster of St. Mary’s Catholic Parish in Luxemburg and Holy Trinity Catholic Parish in Casco wants Easter to serve as an exclamation point for people.

Christian churches across Door and Kewaunee counties will offer their Holy Week and Easter services throughout the weekend. You can visit their individual sites for more information.
