Holy Week 2016 Schedule

Come join us as we journey from the exuberance of Palm Sunday, through the great love of Maundy Thursday, to the pain of the cross, to the Good News of Easter Sunday.  Come and worship.  All are welcome!

Sunday, March 20th:   10:00am Worship – Palm Sunday   Our choirs and musicians will lead us in procession as we enter into the story of Jesus’ triumphant (and challenging) entry into Jerusalem.

Thursday, March 24th:   6:00pm Foot-Washing Service    Meet in the Andrew Howell Classroom upstairs in our Education building.  In John 13, Jesus instructs his disciples to love and serve one another.  Jesus washes their feet to set and example and tells us to do likewise.  Come to this simple worship service  to sing, pray, and reflect upon our calling to love one another as Christ has loved us.  We will have basins of warm water and towels for those who would like to wash another’s feet and have their own feet washed.

Thursday, March 24th:  7:30pm Maundy Thursday Service with Communion shared at long tables   Maundy Thursday is also the day when we remember the institution of the Lord’s Supper.  Come to worship at 7:30pm for a traditional service of hymns, the Word, and the Lord’s Supper.  We will remember the practice of Presbyterians of the 17th and 18th centuries by sitting at long tables to share the bread and the cup of the Lord’s Supper.

Friday, March 25th:  11:00am Good Friday Service of Lessons and Hymns

Sunday, March 27th:    8:30 and 11:00am Easter Sunday Worship Services  We will have two worship services on Easter Sunday.  Come early or late, but come celebrate the Good News that Christ is Risen!!!
