Holy Week at St. Andrews Includes Palms, Eggs and Foot Washing

Palm Sunday Service: Sunday, March 20th at 10 a.m. in the sanctuary. The traditional Palm processional with a special presentation by our children's worship arts groups. All children are invited to wave palms and be part of the processional.

Maundy Thursday Service: Thursday, March 24th 6:00 p.m. in the Courtyard (Heffner Hall if raining). This service will begin with a simple meal shared around tables. We’ll hear scripture read and proclaimed, we will be invited to participate in the footwashing as Jesus did on that night, and we will share the Lord’s Supper together. This service is child-friendly.

Good Friday Service: Friday, March 25th, 7:00 p.m. Tenebrae Service in the Sanctuary.

This year the choir will be leading us using music from "A Service of Darkness" by Dale Wood. The seven choral meditations are based on the last words of Jesus. A significant feature of a Tenebrae service is the gradual extinguishing of the lights and candles in the room. At the beginning of the service seven candles will be lit from the Christ candle and they will be extinguished one-at-a-time during the retelling of Jesus' last days.

Easter Egg Hunt: Saturday, March 26th 10:00 a.m. in Heffner Hall! There will be crafts, snacks, story-telling, songs and more. Please donate small wrapped candies or other small goodies (stickers, tiny toys) that will fit easily into plastic eggs. The children thank you.

Easter Worship Service: Sunday, March 27th 10:00 a.m. At 9:00 all are invited to a special fellowship opportunity. As is our tradition, you are invited to bring your favorite breads to share during our annual Easter Bread celebration in Heffner Hall. We look forward to sharing this time of fellowship with our Church family and visitors.
