Holy Week | Main Site

Christians all over the world celebrate beginning with Palm Sunday,

“the week that changed the world,”

experiencing the Last Supper from Monday - Maundy Thursday during one of our Last Supper Home Gatherings, sharing in observation of the crucifixion on Good Friday, then finally culminating with Easter - Resurrection Sunday - the pivotal moment of the redemption of humanity.

We take the entire week to immerse ourselves in the Scriptures and the significance of the greatest events that have occurred in human history. What do we do with these moments? How do they affect us today?

This year, as we invite you to engage in a combination of online, streaming, and in-person gatherings for prayer, fellowship, communion, worship, and celebration - as we praise God's victory over death. We hope that you immerse yourselves in both its history and its effect on you at this point in your own journey with Christ; and that God may reveal new truths about His love for you.

We also hope that you will invite others to share in communion at our Last Supper Home Gathering anytime Monday - Thursday at a time and location of your choosing. Then we will come together as we remember His suffering on the cross at our Good Friday Tenebrae Service at 7:30 pm. Finally, we will celebrate the transforming power of Christ's resurrection on Easter Sunday morning at either our 7 am Sunrise Outdoor Service or at 9:30 am in the Worship Center and online. We hope you will be blessed and can't wait to see you.

Palm Sunday

Holy week begins with Palm Sunday where we remember Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem with hope-filled followers waving palm branches and laying their garments. This will be a special service which will include our children and a special message and celebration for all ages.

Last Supper In Homes & Online

From Monday, March 25 - through Maundy Thursday, March 28, we gather to commemorate Jesus sharing His last meal with his disciples. On this day, we gather in homes with family, friends, and neighbors to share in prayer, communion, Scripture reading, and group discussion. It is a time that allows us to remember and imitate what Christ did for his disciples and ultimately for the world. We have written a family-friendly guide to help you.
