Easter 2026

Discover God’s unshakeable love this Easter

Every year at Easter, Christians commemorate and celebrate Jesus’ death on the cross and rising back to life (resurrection). The Bible says that through Jesus we are offered salvation, hope and peace.

“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” (John 3:16, NIV)

While Jesus lived on Earth, he shared the message of God’s love with people from all walks of life. This included people considered outcasts or unworthy — people society would often overlook or reject. Jesus welcomed them all, and his message is the same today.

No matter your journey or situation, Jesus wants to give you “gladness instead of sorrow... victory, joy and praise instead of depression and sadness” (Isaiah 61:3, The Voice Bible translation).

At the Salvos, we are motivated to love others the way Jesus loves us. We invite you to connect with your local Salvos or attend an Easter gathering to experience this unshakeable love for yourself. 

If you are looking for other ways to explore Jesus’ message of love, why not take a break from negative news and discover the hope of Easter? Learn more about the real meaning of Easter or read stories about people whose lives have been transformed by Jesus.

Connect with your local Salvos this Easter

Good Friday and Easter Sunday church services (and more) are held in communities around Australia. Just as Jesus welcomed people from all walks of life to spend time with him, everyone is welcome to an Easter worship service or activity at their local Salvation Army.

Whether you’re looking to build connections in your community, learn more about Easter or start a spiritual journey, please get in touch or come along to a gathering.
