Cranford Calendar


The Spring Hop returns this year and will take place on April 1st from 1-3pm! To take part, just purchase a Spring Hop tote bag – supplies are limited. Children will be able to pick up eggs at 20+ downtown businesses and every participant will also win a Golden Egg! Registered participants can pick bags up starting at 12:30pm the day of the event at Eastman Clock Plaza.
Tote bags cost $10 and can be ordered through Eventbrite.
The event is rain or shine – no refunds.


There is nothing like waking up on Easter morning and sharing in the amazement the women who discovered the empty tomb must have felt! Join us outside in the spring air as the sun rises, celebrating the triumph of life over death and light over darkness. Bring a flower from your garden and flower the cross in the front lawn. Some will also be provided.

It will be an exciting Easter worship service at FPCC! With joyful shouts we say “Christ, He is risen!” and respond with “Indeed, He is risen!” Children will brighten the Sanctuary by carrying flowers forward and placing them on the Chancel (the front of the Sanctuary). After the children’s message, “Busy Bags” will keep little ones entertained. Together, we will celebrate Easter with open Communion (all are welcome to join in!) In a beloved tradition, you are invited to come forward to sing the “Hallelujah Chorus” with the choir at the end of the service. This service will also be livestreamed to Facebook and YouTube.

Come for worship, and stay for our Easter Egg Hunt! There will be fun games for families in the Bates Hall gym. In case of inclement weather, the Egg Hunt will take place indoors. (Egg Hunt intended for children ages 12 and under)
