We welcome you to this week’s services as we observe the action-packed and tumultuous days leading up to Jesus’ crucifixion. On Palm Sunday, March 29th, the children lead us in a joyful procession waving palms and ribbons, as we remember the triumphant entry into Jerusalem.
On Maundy Thursday, April 2nd, we will gather for a simple meal at 6PM, a seder-inspired meal recalling the Passover meal that Jesus would have shared with his disciples. At 7 PM we will move into the sanctuary for a worship service including Communion.
On Good Friday we do not host a service here but recommend that MPC’ers visit our neighbors at St John’s Episcopal (just up the road) at 7 PM.
Come back on Easter Sunday at 10 AM for a remembrance of the empty tomb, and a joyful Resurrection celebration! Our Easter services always feature the Barrelhouse Jazz Band, a kid-friendly service with a special story upstairs, and afterwards our egg hunt hosted by the youth group, and a strawberry and sparkling cider reception in the courtyard.
