This past Easter weekend at Inland Lighthouse Church was nothing short of incredible. From the very beginning, there was a sense of expectation, and God did exactly what only He can do.

So much went into making this weekend what it was. Our church came together in an incredible way. Through the Rialto Blitz, we placed door hangers on nearly 30,000 homes in just three and a half weeks. That alone is an incredible accomplishment. Add to that the parking lot outreach, Facebook advertising, billboards, yard signs, and the simple act of people inviting their friends, neighbors, and family. Every piece mattered.

And then came the weekend.

It became the largest Easter weekend we have ever seen, with a total attendance of 3,151 and 2,387 unique individuals. Friday night reached 1,122, Saturday night followed closely with 1,120, and Sunday morning saw 909 in attendance. Both Friday and Saturday night services were the largest services in the history of Inland Lighthouse Church.

But the greatest victories were not in the numbers alone. They were in lives changed.

Sixteen people received the gift of the Holy Ghost for the very first time. Five were baptized in Jesus’ Name. Twenty prayed back through and were renewed in the Holy Ghost. That is what it is all about. That is why we do what we do.

We are so thankful for every person who gave their time, energy, and heart to make this happen. From Sarah Booker and the leadership team, to those involved in music, set design, and props, to the costume team, actors, greeters, ushers, security, sound and lighting teams, and every volunteer behind the scenes. There are too many to name, but none of it would have been possible without each and every one of you.

Most of all, we give all glory to God. He is the one who draws, saves, fills, and restores. We are simply grateful to be a part of what He is doing.

What a weekend. What a move of God. And we believe this is only the beginning.
