Metropolitan Community Church of Anchorage is happy to announce that, beginning Easter Sunday, services will be interpreted for the deaf and hard of hearing.
"We are very pleased to be able to offer this service to our community," said Rev. Norman Van Manen. "Our congregation and church leadership are thrilled to be able to serve God this way."
Those who are deaf or hard of hearing and know sign language, and their friends, are welcome to be part of the worship at MCC Anchorage. Services begin at 2 p.m. in the A-Frame Chapel at St. Mary's Episcopal Church, 2222 East Tudor Road.
On Sunday, MCC Anchorage is hosting a special Easter Worship Service, a time of rejoicing, celebration and worship, followed by a potluck.
"Our new place of worship is proving to be very exciting," said Rev. Norman Van Manen. "The colorful glass windows allow light to enter. The seating causes us to sit a little closer together making the music swell. The warm welcome of St. Mary's Episcopal Church is greatly appreciated. There are exciting things happening at MCC Anchorage."
