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.
Begin Holy Week with us on Palm Sunday as we remember Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem.
View services at 9 and 11 a.m. Bulletin. Between services, cross-generational Stations of the Cross. Meet in Fellowship Hall. |
Maundy Thursday. Soup supper at 6:15 p.m. All welcome! Tenebrae service at 7 p.m. Jesus initiates the Communion Meal at the Last Supper.
Join worship online below. Bulletin |
On Good Friday at 12:15 p.m., we reflect on Jesus' death through readings, prayer, Taizé chanting, and the organ repertoire of Passiontide.

The Easter Season (4.7 - 5.12)
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. -ucc.org/worship-ways/ Climate Action's spring series starts the Saturday after Easter!
