Easter FAQs
Of course! You are more than welcome to keep your child with you. We also have a Family Lounge available, with live streaming of the service, for parents who may want a comfortable place to step out with kids that need a break.
While your kids are more than welcome to stay with you, we also have kids programming, for birth through 5th grade, during our 9:00 and 10:30am services at RVCC Parkland and RVCC Graham. Kids preschool through elementary will enjoy fun Easter activities as part of their morning in RVCC Kids.
You may want to arrive at least 5-10 minutes before service begins so you have time to get a cup of coffee and find a seat. Allow a few extra minutes if you are checking children into RVCC Kids for the first time.
This service will have a casual and informal atmosphere. It will last about an hour and involve music, communion, and a talk on faith by one of our pastors. The talk is rooted in Biblical teaching geared for personal application. Worship is upbeat and contemporary, led by a worship band. Communion is open to all followers of Christ, but if you are not at that point in your faith journey, please don’t feel any pressure to participate.
Tahoma, our partner church, offers a Spanish-speaking service at 10:30am at RVCC Parkland.
Yes, you can watch a prerecorded service online at 10:30am at live.rainierview.org. The online service includes the message, worship, and interactive chat with a host and other attendees.
We are a casual church. Don't feel pressured to dress a certain way or feel like you will stand out in the crowd. Even on Easter, you will see a range of dress styles from jeans and t-shirts, to sport jackets and dresses. Come dressed however you are comfortable, and you will fit right in.
Once you arrive, head to the Welcome Center, or look for one of our staff or volunteers, wearing an RVCC lanyard. They will be more than happy to answer questions, help you find the right classrooms for your children, and even escort you to where you need to go.
Other questions? Email info@rainierview.org and we'd be happy to help.

Baptism Celebration
Sunday, April 20
9:00 & 10:30 at RVCC Parkland
9:00 & 10:30 at RVCC Graham
On Easter Sunday, we're already celebrating, so it seems like the perfect time to celebrate with those who are ready to follow Jesus in baptism. Have you been putting off the decision to be baptized? Sign up today and join us on Tuesday, April 8 for a short virtual discussion about the meaning of baptism, to answer any questions you may have, and to go over important details—such as what time to arrive on Easter morning, what to bring, and what to expect. If you aren't sure if you're ready, this is still for you. It may help you make a decision.
If you can't make it on April 8, simply indicate that when you sign up for the Baptism Celebration, and we’ll arrange another time to share the information with you.
We hope you'll join us.
We can't wait to meet you!
