Holy Week & Easter
Holy Week is just over a week away. This is the most significant time in the church year as we journey through the week leading up to Jesus' death and resurrection.
Through participation in the whole sequence of services, Christians share in Christ’s own journey, from the triumphal entry into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday to the empty tomb on Easter morning.
Take a look at the upcoming services below, and plan your week!
