University Worship: Easter Day

Easter Sunday is the principal feast of the liturgical year-the day when Christians celebrate Jesus's resurrection from the dead on the third day after his crucifixion. The resurrection of Christ has been a focal point of Christian confession since the early church; Christians have understood the resurrection to be the central witness of God's radical action in human history. Jesus, God incarnate, went to the depths of the earth and overcame the power of death that we might have life eternal.

Join us in worship that offers stirring preaching, inspiring sacred music, and faithful prayer. Held amid the beautiful, soaring architecture of Duke Chapel, this interdenominational Christian service is characterized by vibrant faith, intellectual depth, diverse cultural expressions, and a welcoming community.

To attend, navigate to 125 Science Drive, Durham, NC. Parking is available at that address in the Bryan Center Garage with ADA parking in the adjacent surface lot. Parking in the garage is free on Sunday until 2:00 p.m. when using the standard ticket issued upon entering the garage. Regular attenders of the service are encouraged to receive a pass for free parking on Sunday mornings at the visitor desk inside the Chapel.

Services are streamed live on YouTube and broadcast live on channel 12 of the Duke Hospital TV system and on the radio on 620 AM WDNC.
