A Journey from Celebration to the Cross
Join us as we begin Holy Week with the story that holds both joy and sorrow.
Our service opens with the Blessing of the Palms and a child’s reading of Jesus’ entrance into Jerusalem—a moment of celebration as we wave palms and sing “Hosanna.”
Then, the tone shifts.
In place of a sermon, we will hear the full story of Jesus’ betrayal, arrest, trial, and crucifixion as told in the Gospel according to Matthew. Together, we walk the path from praise to the cross.
Holy Communion will be celebrated.
This is a service that moves—
from joy to reflection,
from procession to passion—
as we enter deeply into the mystery of Holy Week.
All are welcome.
