Holy Week and Easter
Holy Week and Easter is the high point of the Christian year. In our worship we are invited into ancient liturgies which invite us to symbolically participate in the final week of Jesus’ life and the Resurrection. We would love for you to join us.
Palm Sunday: April 13 | 8:00 am and 10:15 am
We process around the church waving palm fronds and singing “Hosannah”, lead by the guitar. We remember Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem and then listen to the dramatic reading of the Passion, and end on somber notes anticipating Good Friday.
Maundy Thursday: April 17, Dinner Church & foot washing ritual | 6:00 pm
Dinner Church is a meal embedded in a casual worship service. Maundy Thursday remembers the institution of the Lord’s Supper and when he washed his disciples feet as a symbol of service and humility. Participants have the opportunity to wash the feet of others as a sign of entering into Jesus humility and service. After the service we strip the altar of all ornamentation for Good Friday.
Good Friday: April 18, Stations of the Cross | 9:00 am, Good Friday Liturgy | 10:00 am, Children's Good Friday Program | 4:30 pm
Easter Vigil Saturday: April 19 | 8:00 pm
This service begins with the lighting of the Easter fire and a candlelit procession to the sound of the ethereal “exscultet” chant. It is a profound service, the high point of the Christian year, and we will be celebrating a number of baptisms.
Easter Sunday: April 20 | 8:00 am and 10:15 am
We will celebrate the Feast of the Resurrection with awesome music: including both classical hymns and contemporary songs. Come join us as proclaim together: The Lord is Risen! The Lord is Risen indeed!
There will be an Easter egg hunt for children.
