Dear Church Family,


As we begin Holy Week with Palm Sunday (3/24) we invite you to participate in our special experiences and services coming up. Each one helps us to walk alongside the first disciples, and become aware of the sorrow, fear, surprise and delight of that first Holy Week.


Maundy Thursday · 6:15p & 7:15p

We will gather in our sanctuary to taste, touch, smell, see & hear about the Passover Meal Jesus shared with his disciples at the Last Supper.


Good Friday· 6:15p & 7:15p

We will gather in our sanctuary and using special visual media, we will begin the night in Gethsemane and walk with Jesus through his arrest, trial, condemnation and crucifixion.  


Easter Services · Saturday 6:30p, Sunday 8:15a, 9:30a & 10:45a

Join us to celebrate the hope of the world at one of four identical Easter services on Saturday evening and Sunday morning - and we will have our flower cross for pictures!

As we approach Easter Sunday, we are asking our members to help us in two simple ways:


First, please take a moment and register for the service your household plans to attend (Click the image above). While reservations are not required, registering for the service you will attend with your household gives others an indication of the room available at each service. This strategy served our church well this past Christmas Eve by distributing our attendance evenly across the four services and making room for everyone.


Second, for those who are physically able, plan to park as far away from the building as possible. This will make room for our guests and those with physical need to park closer to the building. This small sacrificial act may help a first-time visitor navigate their way to worship with greater ease and encourage them to trust there is room for them.


It is the MOST Holy Week in the life of God's Church - we hope to help you experience God's presence in a fresh and meaningful way.


With hope,

Pastor Nathan

LENT 2024

Leading up to Holy Week, some of our members are opening up their homes to host your household, serve you a meal and guide encouraging conversation around the table. In doing so we will be sharing in the hospitality and love of Jesus Christ, much like that first Last Supper. 

How to Participate

Click here or the image above, sign up for the time of your choosing and select the number of seats you need for your everyone attending from your household. A week before the meal you will receive information identifying the host(s), their address and the menu. We are saving a seat for you!

Big shout out to our Spring 2024 Sager Brown Missions Team.

These folks were the hands and feet of Christ as they inspected and
