​What is Holy Week?

Holy Week is the week leading up to Easter,
when we remember the key events of Jesus' last week of life.
​In special services,
we contrast the public acclaim of Palm Sunday with the betrayal of the Last Supper,
the darkness of Good Friday with the joy of Easter.

(Bulletins for streamed services will be found on our worship bulletin page here.)

Begin Holy Week with us on Palm Sunday as we remember Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem.

View Palm Sunday worship online in  our app or on our regular livestream page. 

Maundy Thursday. Soup supper at 5:30 p.m. Tenebrae service at 6:15 p.m. (No RSVP needed.)

Jesus initiates the Communion Meal at the Last Supper. Candles are extinguished and the service ends in darkness. All ages welcome!

Join Maundy Thursday worship online in our app or on our regular livestream page. 

On Good Friday at 12:15 p.m., we reflect on Jesus' death through readings, prayer, and meditative music.

This service will be in person only (not streamed).

CINNAMON YUM!
In Plymouth tradition, between services on Easter Sunday (10 a.m.) the Congregational Life Board will be serving delicious Silver Grill Cinnamon Rolls. If you would like to help out, use this form by Thurs. noon.

EGG HUNT
At approximately 10:20, parents and children who are interested in the Egg Hunt will gather in the “Gallery Hall.” After brief instructions, children will move to the lawn and search for eggs. We are asking parents to help the children collect no more than 10 eggs. (The “Little Tots,” ages 1-3, should search for eggs on the front lawn. This will allow them the opportunity to find eggs more easily.) ​Bring your own basket.

The Easter Season (4.12 - 5.24)

An empty tomb astonishes Mary Magdalene
and the other disciples on Easter morning,
and Jesus is soon discovered in the community,
alive and present in a new way,
especially in the “breaking of the bread.”

Easter Sunday begins a season of
fifty days celebration of Jesus’ new life.
