GOOD FRIDAY

by | Apr 7, 2023 | Viva Easter

Join us for Viva Church’s Good Friday service on April 7, 2023, live-streamed with Lead Pastor Frank Seixas preaching from Galatians 6:14 on the meaning of the cross for the church.

In this message, Pastor Frank will explore how the cross is the greatest expression of love and symbolizes both death and life. The cross is where Jesus Christ bore our sins and died so that we might have eternal life. It is also where we die to our old selves, to our fleshly desires, and to the world so that we may live in righteousness.

As we reflect on the power of the cross, Pastor Frank will challenge us to take action in carrying the cross, boasting in the cross, and preaching the cross. He will unpack how the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing but the power of God to those who are being saved. Through the cross, we receive hope and the power to break down barriers between us and God and between one another.

Join us as we remember the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross and celebrate the power of the cross to transform our lives and the world. We invite you to engage in worship through music, prayer, and reflection as we honor the love and sacrifice of Jesus on this Good Friday.

  • Pastor Frank Seixas

    I am Frank the co-lead Pastor and with my wife Chris are the founders of VIVA Church in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada. I first came to Canada in 1987, following God’s call to permanently move from Brazil to Canada. In August 1992, I started VIVA Church. In January 1994, I married Chris, and in 1996, I graduated from the Nazarene Bible College of Canada. Later I was awarded Doctor of Divinity (DDiv) from Canada Christian College in 2022.

    With a vision to reach people for Jesus, VIVA Church has grown to become a positive influence for the Kingdom, not only in Oshawa but also by planting churches internationally in countries like Cambodia and Uganda. Beyond our work at the local church, I (Frank) serve the body of Christ on the boards of other ministries and churches, and I am part of the Apostolic Ministry of MFI-Canada. I also travel to speak at conferences and many churches around the world.

    Chris and I have dedicated more than 30 years to serving at VIVA Church, witnessing the salvation and growth of many. We have been blessed with two beautiful daughters: Leticia, our youngest, and Gabriella, our oldest, who is married to Matheus.
