Holy Thursday Worship

TONIGHT, April 2, 6:30 pm

Join us for a sacred and meaningful service as we remember Jesus’ commandment to “love one another” and the first sharing of Holy Communion. Together we will also reflect on His journey to the cross and His sacrificial death. The service will center on readings from the Gospel of John and have a time for participants to nail their "sins" to the cross.


Don't Forget to Bring Fresh Cut Flowers to Cover our Cross on Easter Morning!

The Easter Lilies for Easter Sunday are given by:
