More Details:

His story has long been told. From the provincial backwaters of Nazareth he travelled the country with an eclectic group of friends. He transformed lives, fed the hungry, spoke up for the poor and miraculously healed those in pain. Some condemned him as a troublemaker; others owned him as their Saviour.

This Easter we invite you to join us as we delve deep into the character and person of Jesus Christ, asking the question, ‘Who is this man?’

Throughout Holy Week Wesley Mission is hosting a range of public events for all the community, giving each of us the opportunity to encounter Jesus Christ in a fresh and meaningful way.

Jesus, unjustly accused by the very people he came to save, submits to punishment and death at the hands of the fearsome militia of his time. Join us as we journey through a moving re-enactment of the events leading up to the crucifixion.

As the sun rises on Easter Day, songs of praise will echo from the Opera House across Sydney Harbour. Hundreds of people from all walks of life will join together celebrating the power and joy of Jesus’ resurrection. The Rev Dr Keith V Garner will lead this service which is followed by hot cross buns and warm drinks.

The Wesley Mission Easter Sunrise Service will be broadcast live on Channel 9 and simulcast on Hope FM 103.2, but we’d love to see you there in person.
