March 28, 7:00 PM    Service of Holy Communion

Maundy Thursday, Maundy from the Latin Mandatum, meaning commandment.    Jesus said, I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another’ (John 13: 34-35).

This night is a time to remember Jesus’ vision of beloved community—to feed and be fed, to love and be loved. This night, we remember the events of Jesus’ last night with his disciples.

March 31, 10:30 A.M.   Service of Worship ~ The Hamilton Brass Quintet

We celebrate the resurrection!

Early on that morning, the first witnesses tell us: their alarm subsided, their courage deepened, their trauma healed, and their amazement grew. 

They learned how to choose hope.
