Join us as we journey through Holy Week, the most sacred time of our liturgical life. From Palm Sunday to Easter Sunday, we will walk together through Jesus’ passion, death, and resurrection with special services, prayer, and reflections!
4/13- Palm Sunday @ 8AM | Our normal 8 AM service with Palms! We will sing “All Glory Laud and Honor” (yes, 8 o’clockers can sing!) and conclude with the reading of the Passion to begin our walk through Holy Week.
4/13- Bilingual Service @ 10AM | The 10 am service will be bilingual and begin in the Oak Street parking lot, with the blessing of palms and procession into the sanctuary.
4/16- People of the Passion @ 7PM | On the eve of Jesus’ Passion, a readers’ theater presentation of various characters (some familiar, some new) who recall how Jesus touched their lives.
4/17- Maundy Thursday @ 7PM | Maundy Thursday Eucharist in the sanctuary with an opportunity to experience footwashing. Special music will be offered by singers from the St. Helena Youth Choir.
