Holy Week Schedule


Palm Sunday
April 2, 2023
Classic Worship at 8:45 & 10:00 a.m. In the Sanctuary
NewDay Praise Worship (contemporary worship) at 10:00 a.m. in the Worship Annex
This worship service celebrates Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem as the people waved palm branches. The people thought they were getting a new king, but little did they know they would shout Crucify Him in a few days! We will celebrate and prepare our hearts to receive the passion story of Jesus.

Maundy Thursday
April 6, 2023
7:00 p.m.
In the Sanctuary
This worship is unlike almost any other worship experience throughout the year.
We will sing, read scripture, and pray as we do in any other worship experience.
But instead of celebrating the risen and living Christ - the center of all Sunday worship - we will remember the days and activities of Christ before his resurrection... including and especially his crucifixion and death.
We do this not to be morbid but to fully understand the power and promise found in his resurrection.
Be at peace, and know that you rest safely in God's care as we enter this sacred time of worship and reflection.
