Hope Has a Name
What seemed like the worst news became the best news.
On the first Good Friday, Jesus died on a cross — a moment that looked like final defeat. But three days later, everything changed. The tomb was empty. Death had been defeated. Hope was alive.
That’s the heart of Easter:
A fresh start is possible because Jesus is alive.
No matter what you’re facing, there’s a hope that doesn’t run out or let go.
If you’ve ever wanted a reason to believe that bad things don’t get the last word — Easter is for you.

What about Kids?
✔ Preschool Sunday School is available (babies through Pre-K) during all services.
✔ Elementary-aged kids & students will join their families in worship
Why? At FBC Melbourne, we believe worship is for the whole family. That’s why every Sunday—not just on Easter—we encourage kids and students to participate in worship with their parents. We do offer Sunday School for kids and students on most Sundays as a way to help them grow in their faith—but it’s always in addition to worship, never in place of it. On Easter, we take this to heart by worshiping together as one big church family!
✔ Pre-register your preschoolers to make check-in easy on Easter morning!
