The Road to Easter 2026
Journey with us through Holy Week as we follow Jesus from His triumphal entry into Jerusalem to the joy of the empty tomb. This is a special time for our church family to gather, remember, and celebrate all that Christ has done for us. We invite you, your family, and your friends to be part of this meaningful week.
Holy Week
March 29 – April 5, 2026
Palm Sunday
March 29, 2026 at 8:00am and 10:45am
We begin Holy Week by celebrating Christ’s triumphal entry into Jerusalem. Palm Sunday is the final Sunday before Easter and sets the stage for the week ahead as we walk with Jesus toward the cross. Children and adults alike are invited to join in this joyful, hope-filled worship.
Maundy Thursday
April 2, 2026 at 7:00pm
On Maundy Thursday, we remember Jesus in the upper room with His disciples. Together we will share in Holy Communion, receiving Christ’s body and blood as they did on that night. The service concludes with the Stripping of the Altar, a powerful reminder that prepares our worship space and our hearts for Good Friday.
Good Friday
April 3, 2026 at 7:00pm
Tenebrae Service
Our Tenebrae, or “service of darkness,” invites us to reflect deeply on Christ’s trial, suffering, and crucifixion—His ultimate faithfulness to God and His great love for us. As we read through the story of Christ’s passion, the worship center gradually darkens, helping us enter into the mystery and weight of this holy day.
Easter Event for Families

Families with children are invited to our Annual Children’s Easter Resurrection Celebration and traditional Easter egg hunt. Beginning at 9:30am on the school playground, we will hold Easter egg hunts for ages 0–4 first, followed by ages 5–10. This is a fun, joy-filled way to celebrate the risen Jesus and share His love. Everyone is welcome, so please invite relatives, neighbors, and friends to join you.
