The 40 days of Lent learn more
Holy Week
Services
Sunday, March 28 – Palm
Sunday
Palm Sunday
will be observed as we remember Jesus' joyous entry into
Jerusalem, on streets lined with people, who were in
Jerusalem for Passover, waving palm branches and proclaiming
him as the messianic king. The Gospels tell us that Jesus
rode into the city on a donkey, enacting the prophecy of
Zechariah 9:9, and in so doing emphasized the humility that
was to characterize the Kingdom he proclaimed.
Thursday, April 1 – Maundy
Thursday Service
7:00 pm
Maundy Thursday, also called Holy Thursday,
is a service to commemorate Jesus' Last Supper with
the disciples as they gathered together in the Upper Room.
Jesus washed the disciples' feet and instituted what we now
observe as the sacrament of Holy Communion.
Jesus also gave
the disciples a new commandment to love one another as he
had loved them (John 13:34).
Friday,
April 2 – Good Friday Service
7:00 pm
Good Friday Service will be a quiet, solemn
service as we commemorate the crucifixion of Jesus. This
will proclaim God's purpose of loving and redeeming the
world through the cross of our Lord, Jesus Christ. It is a
day that is good because God was drawing the world to God's
self in Christ.
Sunday,
April 4 – Easter Sunday
We will have two services on Easter Sunday:
7:00 am at the
Labyrinth
10:30 am in the Sanctuary
Celebrate with us as we remember the
resurrection of Jesus Christ and the hope He brings to each
of us. Hallelujah, Christ has risen.
