UPCOMING EVENTS

Personal Confession

During the season of Lent, our pastoral team is offering one-on-one meetings for personal confession. While we absolutely affirm that all of our sins (past, present and future) are forgiven through Christ’s finished work on the cross when we repent and believe in the name of Jesus, we hold that repentance remains an essential part of the Christian life. Owning and turning away from the many places of brokenness and rebellion in our lives brings healing and growth. Repentance aligns our lives with Jesus. It is good news. 

While personal confession is not in any way a requirement, it is a powerful action that can be helpful in breaking the power of persistent sin, and in bringing comfort and encouragement to areas of ongoing regret. Anything shared in confession will remain confidential. 

Appointments can be scheduled with individual priests using the buttons below.

HOLY WEEK

Palm Sunday

Sunday, March 29   | 8:45 & 11 a.m.

The congregation participates as part of the initial procession, beginning in the south parking lot and processing through the Garth and into the Sanctuary, recalling Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem. In place of our normal lectionary readings and Gospel procession, the congregation participates in the reenactment of Jesus’ betrayal, trials and crucifixion through a corporate reading of selected portions of the Gospel of Matthew.

There are no Sunday school classes between the services for children or adults on Palm Sunday.

Toddlers and preschoolers are invited to take part in the processional with their families and can be dropped off at class just before entering the sanctuary. All children are invited to visit the donkey with their parents in the Garth between services.

Maundy Thursday

Thursday, April 2   | 7 p.m.

On Maundy Thursday, or Commandment Thursday, we celebrate Holy Communion, participate in a reenactment of the foot washing of Jesus and conclude with the stripping of the altar, which is a startling visual representation of what the world would be without Christ.

There is no child care available for this service.

Good Friday

Friday, April 3   | noon

Through Stations of the Cross meditations, we will prayerfully enter the darkness of Christ’s death and burial in order to share in the joy of his resurrection. During the noon service, kindergartners through fifth-graders will meet downstairs in the Youth Room. 

The north parking lot will be blocked off for the kids’ station of the cross. Please park in the west, south or east parking lots

Lunch will be served, and children will take part in their version of the Stations of the Cross. Toddlers and preschoolers will have lunch together and learn about Jesus’ time on the cross.

In order to plan for food, please register your child(ren) via here by Tuesday, March 31.

Easter Sunday

Sunday, April 5   | Traditional service—7:30 a.m.; Contemporary services—9 & 11 a.m.

Holy Week culminates with the grand celebration of Christ’s resurrection and saving grace on Easter morning! In order to have space for family, guests and those looking for a place to worship on Easter, we will have three services on Sunday. 

The traditional service will be at 7:30 a.m. and will have no children’s or early childhood classes during the service.

Both the 9 and 11 a.m. services will be contemporary services. Children’s and early childhood classes will take place like a normal Sunday. 

There are no classes between services for children or adults on Easter Sunday.

Children will take part in the “flowering of the cross” at the beginning of each service. Flowers will be provided, but you are welcome to bring flowers from your garden as well. Toddlers and preschoolers are invited to participate in the flowering of the cross and then proceed to class to learn about Christ’s resurrection. Children’s and early childhood classes will take place during the 9 & 11 a.m. service.
