Sunrise on the Atlantic at Cocoa Beach was a beautiful and glorious sight this troubled Easter of 2004. Local potestant churches traditionally conduct a community Sunrise Service on the beach at Fisher Park in Cocoa Beach. The Order or Worship was:
First United Methodist Pastor The Rev. Jim Mitchell welcomed the crowd and led the call to Worship.
Riverside Presbyterian Pastor, The Rev. Dr. Dan Robinson preached with conviction. "Cataclysmic Act of God" Christ is Risen Indeed!
Community Church Pastor, The Rev. Dr. Fred Fourie, delivered the Easter Prayers.
Riverside Presbyterian Pastor, The Rev. Jane Wesson gave the Benediction. Go In Peace- Live For Christ
Worshipers arriving in the dark were greeted with music by the Cocoa Beach Community Church singers Linda Griffin, Nancy Todd, and Coleman Todd. Later the service was magnificantly enhanced by performances of the CBCC singers and the First United Methodist Church dancers. The latter greeted the sunrise with "Agnus Dei".
