Jesus is Alive! Come celebrate with us on Easter Sunday!
Why is Easter so special?
As Christians, we believe in the death and resurrection of Christ and Easter is yearly time where we get to emphasize and celebrate it!
What is church on Easter like?
On Easter Sunday, we worship Jesus together through son AND hear a message from our Pastor about the resurrection of Christ. Each of our services are about 70 minutes in length.
Where do my kids go?
Each family is welcome to either bring their children with them to service OR check them into our Kid City area for a safe and fun time learning about Jesus!

What is Good Friday?
On April 3 at 5:30 PM, both of our campuses will gather together for a special night of worship as we intentionally remember the death of Jesus and take the Lord’s Supper together.
This service will be reflective in nature — a time to slow down, fix our eyes on Christ, and remember the sacrifice He made on our behalf. Our prayer is that everyone who attends would walk away with a deeper gratitude and greater appreciation for what Jesus has done for us.

I'm new to church and I'm not sure where to start!
First off, we’re so glad you’re considering joining us for Easter Sunday at Forest Park!
If you’re new, we recommend arriving about 15 minutes early. Park in one of our designated visitor spots and let one of our parking lot volunteers know it’s your first time — they’ll take care of the rest and help you feel right at home.
Bringing kids? Our team will help make check-in simple and smooth, and we’ll guide you to the worship center so you can settle in with ease.
At our Joplin Campus, the 9:00 AM service features choir and orchestra, and the 10:30 AM service features a modern worship style. At our Carthage Campus, both services are identical with modern worship.
No matter which campus or service you choose, we pray you leave blessed, encouraged, and reminded of the hope we have in Jesus.
Have questions? Reach out to our Connections Director, Abbey Webb, at abbey@forestpark.church — she’d love to connect with you!
