HOLY WEEK - The Week of March 29, 2026 in the Life of the Church
  • Palm Sunday Service: On Sunday, March 29th, we will gather in the sanctuary to celebrate Jesus entering Jerusalem. We'll worship with prayers, songs, scripture, and a sermon. Our sanctuary will be adorned with palms on the chancel. Palms will be distributed during the service, and additional palms will be available following the service. At the close of worship, the cross, the piano, and various elements on the chancel will be draped in black as we travel to Maundy Thursday and Good Friday.
  • Maundy Thursday: Reverend Barge, on Maundy Thursday, will be participating at the Warminster church in an evening service. Those interested in attending, please ask Rev. Barge for more information. There will not be a service at our church that day.
  • Good Friday:  We will be holding a service in the sanctuary from noon to 1:00. In this service of reflection, we will be traveling to the cross in scripture, prayer, and meditation.
  • Easter Sunday: Join us as we celebrate the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ and the Sacrament of Holy Communion at 11 o’clock. During this joyous time, we will be singing the praises of our risen Lord in songs, prayers, scripture, and the spoken word. As has been our custom, at the conclusion of the service, we will go onto the Tabor Road steps and sing hymns and conclude with the benediction.
Join us for all of these services or as many as you can. You bless us with your presence.
