Holy Week & Easter Worship at Grace Lutheran Church

Palm Sunday is March 20
On this day, we remember the great celebration as Jesus entered the city of Jerusalem to shouts of praise and palm branches laid before him.  We worship at our regular times of 8 & 10:30.
 
Maundy Thursday is March 24
We gather at 7pm to hear the story of Jesus Last Supper with his friends, and we share those same words along with bread and wine when we celebrate Holy Communion that evening. 
 
Good Friday is March 25
This solemn and moving Tenebrae service begins at 7pm.  As we witness the events of the betrayal, arrest and crucifixion of Christ, it gets  progressively darker as candles are extinguished and the sun goes down.  We leave in silence until we return on Easter morning, as the women did on that day that changed with world forever. 
 
Easter on March 27
Come to hear and celebrate the best news the world has ever received- the tomb is empty, Jesus rose from the grave and he promises to raise us, too! 
 
We have three worship opportunities that day.  All will include Holy Communion and special music.

We are moving the service to 6:30 this year.  Make a note of this!  Handbells will be providing us with special music.
