Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, Easter Vigil, Easter Night Prayer Service 7:00 PM
MAUNDY THURSDAY Thursday, March 29 at 7:00 PM
We Remember. At the heart of this night is Jesus’ commandment to love one another. At the Lord’s Table we remember Jesus’ sacrifice of his life, even as we are called to offer ourselves in love for the life of the world. Worship offers the opportunity to receive individual forgiveness of sins, to share in the loving service of foot-washing and to witness as the altar is stripped bare…as worship ends in silence.
GOOD FRIDAY Friday, March 30 at 7:00 PM
It is finished. At the heart of Good Friday is the passion story of Jesus, which proclaims Jesus as a triumphant king who reigns from the cross. In the ancient bidding prayer we offer petitions for all the world that Christ loves. Worship begins and ends in silence
EASTER VIGIL Saturday, March 31 at 7:00 PM
This is the night! This is our Passover with Christ from captivity to freedom, from death to life. The resurrection of Christ is proclaimed in word and water, bread and wine. We gather around a pillar of fire, hear ancient stories of our faith, affirm and celebrate the gift of Baptism, and share the food and drink of the promised land. Raised with Christ, we go forth into the world with the good news of the resurrection.
NIGHT PRAYER SERVICE Sunday, April 1, at 7:00 PM
Even as the promise of resurrection is proclaimed, we live surrounded by death, in lives of conflict and struggle. We pray this Easter Night around the story of the disciples who were walking away in despair after Jesus’ death…wondering what they would do next. We gather for reflection, healing prayer, and simple music.
