From Passion to Resurrection
This week we gather to remember a meal, a trial, an execution, and a burial. For most, the story would end there. But we meet as community again to remember and celebrate a resurrection and a promise kept.
It’s a lot. And its magnificent and painful and glorious. It’s a week to be in community – sharing the stories and emotions and promises kept. It’s our story as much as it’s a story of God – who loves us more than we can say.
Join us as we retell this story of faith, grace, and love.
Maundy Thursday – Soup & Bread at 6:30 PM, Worship at 7:30 PM

Pastor Tina
Thanks: to the Robinsons, the Malasits, Don Roberts, Pat Kovacs & the Fawcetts for a great Holy Week clean-up!
Easter Breakfast: We are in need of a few folks to set up the Parish Hall and coordinate serving breakfast on March 27. We also need folks to clean up after the 10:15 worship service. Please contact the office ASAP. We cannot have breakfast without your help.
Save the Date: There will be an Inter-generational Spring Tea on Saturday April 23 from 3-5 PM. Mothers and sons, dads and daughters, Grandparents & grandkids – however it works for your family to spend time with each other. There will activities and of course, ‘high’ tea – and we hope that we are able to host this event outside. We are asking for a donation of $5/person who attends.
We are in need of small metal coffee cans for one of the activities, preferable with the lids. These can be dropped off in the resource room. Our goal is 50.
Keep an eye out for sign-ups to help with tea cookies and sandwiches!
