We look forward to our third annual
Sunrise service, with our cantor,
Becky Ramirez, on April 16 at
6.30AM on the plaza cross. A
breakfast hosted by Jennifer Henry
will follow the service in the
Fellowship Hall.
Both sunrise and sunset resonate
with me in special ways. The beauty
captures my attention and when I
witness them I feel the presence of
the great cloud of witnesses reciting
the psalms together in unison. I am
reminded of rebirth, new life, and
the power to live in a world that can
often discourage.
Join us as we sing,
reflect, and listen at our
Sunrise Service. We
also invite you to attend
other special events
during Holy Week.
This is truly a special
time of the year. Not
only do we celebrate
the most central
statement in regard to
our faith, the
resurrection of Jesus Christ from the
dead, we have Maundy Thursday at
6.30PM on April 13. As always, the
set design is something to behold.
The youth will present their Easter
program at 9.30 in the chapel.
Please mark your calendars.
Share in all the truth, majesty,
history, power, and faith of the ages
that all collide in what we call Holy
Week. Glory to the Father, and to
the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it
was in the beginning, is now, and
will be forever, world
without end.
