A Big Week

This week begins a big week in the life of the church--Holy Week, we call it. Our annual re-entry into the story of Christ's death and resurrection. And, it all begins with a parade into Jerusalem (see above).

The stories of this week are SO rich. I treasure them. When I was in Jr. High and early High School, I discovered Jesus Christ, Superstar & Godspell; forever, now, I hear these stories sung in rock opera style. They are full of rich symbolism, dramatic and complicated characters, all of whom could be played in wonderfully diverse ways. They helped me to expereince Jesus and his life in some new ways. They literally put me in the gospel story!

This week, we have the opportunity to introduce our friends, neighbors, family members, co-workers to Jesus through the events and symbolism of this most Holy of Weeks. Why not take the time to invite someone to Palm Sunday worship, or Maunday Thursday Communion or to the awesome power of Easter and the empty tomb!

Come join us Thursday at 7:00 pm
or Friday at the same time.
or on Easter at 7:15 am Easter Sunrise Service8:30 and 10:55 Resurrection Celebrations.
Easter Egg Hunt and Children's service 9:45 am.

Hope to share the wonder and power of this Holy Week together!
Rev. Richard
