Easter is not only a celebration of the resurrection of Jesus Christ, but also a divine reminder of the power of love, unity, and new beginnings. At Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) Kingsrealm, this year’s Easter celebration took a beautiful turn toward community—one that brought families together in a deeply personal and spiritually enriching way. The pursuit of purpose can sometimes make us lost meaningful connections often resulting from busyness. Meanwhile, CAC Kingsrealm reimagined fellowship through an innovative initiative that brought families together for an unforgettable Easter experience.
A New Tradition Rooted in Togetherness
In a beautiful display of faith, fellowship, and family unity, Christ Apostolic Church Kingsrealm celebrated Easter in a way that truly captured our desire of building strong families and a connected community. Under the visionary leadership of Prophet Titilayo Femi Kings, the church launched a unique Easter Family Hangout—an initiative where every family was paired with another to celebrate Easter together in meaningful, fun-filled ways.
This wasn’t just an event—it was a movement of love that echoed across Middlesbrough in homes, restaurants, parks, and cozy meeting spots, as families bonded deeply in Christ love and community. This initiative added another practical layer to the church’s apostolic mandate—raising individuals with sharpened spirits, sound minds, and skilled hands who manifest the dominion mandate in everyday life.
How It Worked: Families Meeting Families
Rather than hosting a single-location event, the Easter Family Hangout was creatively decentralized. Each family in CAC Kingsrealm was paired with another, and together they planned how and where to celebrate their Easter. This meant families had the freedom to design an experience that suited their personalities, interests, and spiritual rhythms.
Some families hosted each other in their homes for meals and games. Others opted for more adventurous outings, such as meals at restaurants, scenic walks, or leisure time at Middlesbrough’s many beautiful parks. This flexible model allowed families to not only bond but also discover the unique ways God expresses love through diverse expressions of hospitality.
From café hangouts to laughter in the park, each experience was unique—yet united in purpose: strengthening family bonds and deepening community roots. More importantly, it allowed families to express Christ’s love in intentional, organic ways, creating memories that extended beyond the event and deepened their bonds within the church community.
Families genuinely connecting with each other for the Easter Hangout
Faith, Fun, and Fellowship at the Core
Although the locations and activities varied, the spirit remained the same. Every moment was a celebration of Christ’s resurrection expressed through joy, unity, and mutual care. Families prayed together, ate together, laughed together—and in doing so, lived out the church’s mandate of manifesting dominion with apostolic grace through everyday life.
This Easter initiative helped demystify fellowship beyond formal services. It reminded families that spiritual growth also happens around dinner tables, in spontaneous conversations, and through shared laughter.
Some shared how meaningful it was to finally connect on a deeper level with church families they normally only waved at on Sundays. Children formed new friendships, couples shared testimonies, and even newcomers felt immediately integrated.
“This is more than a hangout—it’s a lifestyle we want to keep living. Please, let this become a quarterly tradition,” one family shared enthusiastically.
The Power of Intentional Connection
In pursuit of ambitions, many families—even within the same church—struggle to truly connect outside of Sunday services. The Easter Family Hangout answered this need by offering intentional space for relationships to grow.
CAC Kingsrealm’s leadership recognized that while strong sermons and worship are essential, so too are the spaces that foster community, conversations, and care. This initiative wasn’t merely social—it was deeply spiritual.
The Easter family hangout among families brought a display of genuine fellowship, love, dining, games, and heart-to-heart talks. One family mentioned how their children opened up in new ways during the visit, leading to a renewed sense of closeness.

Strengthening the Fabric of the Church
When families are healthy, the church becomes stronger. CAC Kingsrealm has always emphasized its family-oriented culture, and the Easter Family Hangout was a reflection of this vision in action.
This initiative didn’t require a big budget, flashy decor, or a stage. It thrived on genuine connection, shared meals, and intentional love. It proved that the strength of a church isn’t just measured by Sunday attendance but by the quality of relationships its members share during the week.
Many members left the hangout feeling refreshed, seen, and spiritually motivated. It also served as a gentle reminder of the early church in Acts 2:46-47—breaking bread from house to house, with gladness and sincerity of heart.

Concluding Thoughts
The Easter Family Hangout wasn’t just a one-off idea—it was a prophetic act. It brought families closer, gave room for laughter and tears, and reminded us that the church is people, not just a building. As CAC Kingsrealm continues to walk in its apostolic mandate, initiatives like this are proof that God’s Kingdom is built not only through preaching—but through community, relationship, and intentional love.
We celebrate every family that participated. We honor the leadership for this inspired vision. And we look forward—with joy and expectation—to what God will do next.
