Holy Week Reading Guide
As we enter into Holy Week, we invite you to take some time each day to read about the events that took place leading up to the death and resurrection of Jesus.
We also invite you to join us for a Maundy Thursday Tenebrae and Communion service in the Sanctuary at 7:00pm on March 29th, and for Easter Sunday Celebration Services beginning at 6:00am with an outdoor sunrise service, followed by Traditional Celebration Services at 7:30am, 9:30am, and 11:00am on April 1st.
We look forward to sharing in this beautiful and weighty week with you.
