HOLY WEEK AND EASTER

The days from Palm Sunday through Easter Sunday are some of the most holy and meaningful in the life of the Christian church. We remember Jesus' triumphant return to Jerusalem, to be followed shortly by the Passover meal where he served his disciples, his betrayal and crucifixion and, joyfully, his resurrection on Easter morning. We invite you to mark these important points of remembrance and faith with us.

Children are invited to wave palms at the beginning of the 9am Praise Service and the 11am Traditional Service. We'll continue our series, Greater Than, with the message Hope > Despair,  based on Matthew 21:1-10, 27:27-31. Holy Grounds coffee will open at 8:45am, before the praise service and continue until 11am.
