Lent 2026
Lent invites us to slow down, to remember, and to walk together toward the hope of resurrection. At The Park, this season isn’t just a date on the calendar. It’s a journey we take as a church family.
As we move through these weeks, we’ll gather to reflect on the depth of Christ’s love, to sit in the weight and beauty of Good Friday, and then to celebrate the joy of Easter morning. Our time together will be meaningful for every generation, from shared worship to moments designed especially for our kids to experience the story in ways they can understand and enjoy.
We hope you’ll make this Lenten weekend part of your family rhythm. Invite a friend, bring your neighbors, and come to worship, remember, and to rejoice. It will be a special time for our community to be together.
Join us as we observe the Lenten season and celebrate Easter together! Mark your calendars for these upcoming gatherings:
- Good Friday Service: April 3 at 11:45 AM – childcare available for infants – 5th grade
- Easter Jam: April 5 at 8:45 AM
- Breakfast: April 5 at 9:30 AM
- Easter Service: April 5 at 10:00 AM
- Easter Egg Hunt: Back by popular demands, egg hunts will take place in the classrooms!

Community at The ParkAt The Park, the community doesn’t stop on Sundays; connection continues as we share life together throughout the week. Our communities gather in living rooms, around tables, and on back porches to grow in their faith and follow Jesus side by side. Whether it’s a Bible study, book club, movie night, or something uniquely you, every group carries the same heart: discipleship in everyday life.
There’s a place for you here. Explore current groups and what’s new at theparksa.org/groups. And if you’re considering starting a group of your own, we’d love to help you think through what that could look like, you can reach out to Nancy Gaines at nancy@theparksa.org.
Spiritual Formation Resources
Small Group Discussion Questions
Looking for a simple way to stay connected to Scripture throughout the week? Each week, we post discussion questions that align with Sunday’s sermon to help you continue engaging God’s Word beyond Sunday morning. These questions are designed to be used with your family, your small group, or on your own as a rhythm of weekly Scripture reflection.
Whether you’re around a dinner table, in a living room, or opening your Bible on a quiet morning, this is an easy way to keep the conversation going and let the sermon shape your week.
You can find the weekly questions by clicking here.
Worship at The Park
Worship through music is an integral part of our practices at The Park. Whether you leave our services wanting to know “What was that song?” or want to come prepared or need a way to sit in the presence of the Lord during your week, here is a playlist of the songs we’re currently worshiping with at The Park.
