MARCH SERVING SCHEDULE
Expectation and Holy Times
As a congregation, we are looking forward in expectation to our shared observance of Holy Week. As we cultivate seeds of joy throughout Lent, we wait to see them begin to blossom and then seem to wilt by the emotional shift of Palm/Passion Sunday; remember the covenant of love that is our deepest joy on Maundy Thursday; witness the pain of the cross on Good Friday; wait in vigil on Holy Saturday; and awaken to the joy of new life on Easter morning.
Our Holy Week worship times this year are as follows:
- Palm/Passion Worship - Saturday, March 23, 4:00 p.m.; Sunday, March 24, 8:45 a.m. & 11:00 a.m.
- Maundy Thursday Worship - Thursday, March 28, 7:00 p.m.
- Ecumenical Good Friday Worship - Friday, March 29, 12:00 noon
- Holy Saturday Worship - Saturday, March 30, 4:00 p.m.
- Easter Sunrise Worship - Sunday, March 31, 7:00 a.m.
- Easter Sunday Worship - Sunday, March 31, 8:45 a.m. & 11:00 a.m.
- Easter Egg Hunt - Sunday, March 31, 12:00 noon
Even as our congregation prepares for this holy time, my family is preparing for a different sort of holy time. We are expecting our second child right at the beginning of Holy Week, and I will be taking four weeks of family leave as we welcome this new addition to our family. I am grateful to this church for the gift of this sacred time with my family. And fear not! Our elders, the rest of the staff, and a few special guests are working together to make sure that this time in our church’s life will be as sacred, special, and life-giving as ever.
What a joy, indeed, to be in ministry with this congregation as we share the good news of God’s promises of wholeness and healing with a community and world so in need of it.
Grace + Peace,
David
