All are invited to draw near to God as we mark the pivotal events of Jesus' final earthly days — his entry into Jerusalem, the Last Supper with his disciples, his suffering and death on a Roman cross, and his glorious resurrection.

Palm Sunday • April 13

Morning Services | 8 & 11* a.m.

Acts 17:1–15 | "The World Turned Upside Down"

Palm Sunday marks Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem for the Jewish holiday of Passover. As he rode on a donkey, the crowd spread cloaks and branches on the road before him.

Maundy Thursday • April 17 

Communion Service | 7:30 p.m.
John 15:1–17 | "These Things I Command You"
Rev. Jules Grisham

The word "Maundy" is derived from the Latin word "mandatum" meaning "command" or "order" and relates to Jesus' commandment in John 13:34 — "...just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another."

Good Friday • April 18

Tenebrae Service of Darkness | 7:30 p.m.
