HOLY WEEK

As we move away from the triumphal entry into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, and into the solemn and terrible events of Holy Week, you may wish to add to your personal devotional time.  If you haven't found just the right devotional booklet for yourself, here is a link to an on-line guide that may help. 
Of course, our church is also offering plenty of opportunity for corporate prayer as well.

On Thursday, March 28, 6:00 pm we will hold a Tenebrae Service in the sanctuary.  Tenebrae is the Latin word for "shadows." The service is usually celebrated on Maundy Thursday or Good Friday. In the Protestant traditions, the service usually follows the readings of the gospels covering the Last Supper and the Passion of Christ. As the readings proceed, candles are extinguished, representing the flight of the disciples, the hatred of the enemies of Christ and the Crucifixion of Jesus. As the service draws to an end, the Church is dark, remembering Jesus in the tomb. Often, as the congregation leaves, a single candle is then lit, reminding us of the hope of Easter resurrection.

Good Friday, March 29, 10:00 am we join with other churches on the peninsula for a combined Good Friday service at Friendship Community Church, 7820 C. Saanich Rd., Saanichton.

Easter Sunday, March 31, 8:00 am  Sunrise service at Cy Hampson Park.  Easy parking.  The forecast is for good weather this year, so we may actually see the sun.  Come and join us for this inspiring service
And very early in the morning the first day of the week, they came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun. Mark 16:2
