Dementia-friendly church service: Easter Sunday

We’re nearly to Resurrection Sunday — hallelujah!

In case you missed my earlier post, here are the dementia-friendly worship resources for Easter Sunday, March 31. (That post includes a worship service for Good Friday as well.)

  • Easter playlist: This is the easiest way to show the YouTube Easter video church service and have it followed immediately by the Hallelujah chorus. (Otherwise you’ll have to find and start the Hallelujah Chorus separately.) 
  • Standalone Easter video church service (43 minutes) and optional accompanying special hymnal. (If you haven’t used the playlist, at the very end of this video you can click on the thumbnail image to play the Hallelujah Chorus — though you may be interrupted by ads.)
  • Standalone Hallelujah Chorus sing-along video. This recording, used by permission, is a separate video to honor the copyright. Encouraging people to sing along makes for a rousing ending to the Easter service! I
  • Easter written church service agenda and accompanying hymnal.

Have a blessed Easter. He is risen indeed!

Peace be with you,

    Chaplain Elisa,

    Thank you for all of this information.

    I just reviewed your Easter Sunday service n was happily surprised to see your colorful video song with lyrics at the end.

    I have used colorful nature Children n people videos with lyrics for a long time for Bible Study or Sunday services.

    It used to take forever to find videos that correlated with the written music/hymns I was given to use ….verse by verse n same words.

    After a year of exhaustion, I now find the videos with lyrics n just move people closer to the large screen so they can see better…n it’s working! Hallelujah!!!!

    Thanks again for all U do for so many you know n for those u have never met.

    God Bless You Chaplain Elisa!!
