Parkwood has been holding an Easter Sunrise service followed by a pancake breakfast since the early 1980's. We chose to
hold our service at sunrise, as we could think of nothing more appropriate than seeing the sun come up to celebrate the
rising of the Son of God, Jesus, from the dead, thus conquering sin and allowing us the be freed from our sin through
believing in Him. It is held at the Arborteum, overlooking the Rideau Canal, just west of Carleton University.
The Arboretum, part of Agriculture Canada's Central Experimental Farm, is located just east of the traffic circle at the
intersection of Price of Wales Drive and the National Capital Commission Drive, a few km. south of Baseline Road. On the accompanying
map there is a circular drive just east of that intersection. Park by the house and walk along the circular
drive to the south of the parking lot.
