Maundy Thursday, March 24—Lord’s Supper, 7pm
We remember and celebrate our Lord’s Supper, along with First Communion celebration for our youth. The service concludes with the poignant and powerful Stripping of the Altar.
Good Friday, March 25—Tenebrae Service, 7pm
With extinguishing of candles and increasing darkness of the Tenebrae Service, we recall Jesus' 7 statements spoken from the cross. Worship includes the ancient bidding prayer and solemn reproaches, as we offer solemn reverence to Christ’s cross of salvation. Wherever we are during the day, we pause in special reverence at 3:00 - the hour Jesus breathed his last.
Holy Saturday, March 26—Easter Vigil, 7:45pm
We gather outside by a fire with lighted candles and enter the sanctuary for the Easter Vigil. We remember the waiting of that night when our Lord lay dead in the tomb. We hear foundational stories of Scripture and affirm our identity as baptized children of God who are joined to the death and resurrection of Jesus.
