Good Friday Service
We hope you’ll join us on Friday, April 19 at 7:00 p.m. The theme is, “Father Forgive Them”.
Good Friday is the darkest day in the record of all mankind. God’s Son, Jesus Christ, who came freely to give of His life, knowing that it would cost Him the very thing that He treasured the presence of the Father, was crucified, dead and buried. The scriptures tell us that He became sin on our behalf. Through various narrations, we will try to grasp hold of the truth that Jesus died not of suffocation (the normal way people died when crucified) but by the weight of our sins and the sins of all mankind placed upon Him.
Through the use of scripture reading, poetry, various reflections, and music we will make every attempt to grasp the significance of Jesus’s profound words, “Father forgive them for they know not what they do.” Come join us.
Maundy Thursday Service
Please join us on Thursday, April 18, at 7 p.m. The theme for this service is, “The Night Before”.
Maundy Thursday is the time when we remember that Jesus is spending his last moments with His disciples before He is betrayed, tried, and crucified. The words found in scriptures give us a glimpse of some of the things that Jesus spoke to them not only regarding what was about to happen to Him personally, but also to give them words of encouragement for the future.
Come join with us as we reflect on these words. We will take some time to search our own hearts about how the words that Jesus spoke to His disciples in the upper room apply to us in our everyday life and also what we might say to our loved ones if we knew the end was near and eminent. The life of Christ up to the point of His betrayal and crucifixion is really an example of how we should be living our lives in terms of loving our family, neighbors and even our enemies, how to treat each other with respect, and how to develop a relationship with God that is pleasing to Him.
If you knew that you were going to die the next day; what would you be doing? Who would you talk to? What would you say to them?
