Holy Week Schedule
Holy Thursday Worship
This day is also known as Maundy Thursday, from the Latin phrase mandatum novum from the “new commandment" of Jesus found in John's gospel that we love one another as Jesus loved us.
Join us on April 6th at 6 pm MT when we will read the story of Jesus' final meal with his disciples from Matthew's gospel. Worship concludes with the stripping of the altar for Good Friday worship, which dramatizes Jesus' symbolic stripping of earthly power and his self-emptying love.
The Zoom link will be the normal Sunday worship link found on our website, or you may find the Zoom connection here.
Good Friday Worship
Good Friday is the day Jesus was crucified. As we gather for worship on April 7th at 6pm MT, the focus will be the extended and interactive reading of the passion narrative, or story of the crucifixion of Jesus, from the gospel of Matthew.
The congregation will read the parts of disciples, accusers, chief priests, congregation, soldiers, and bystanders. These parts are in bold type in the downloadable PDF reading; if you are participating in worship via Zoom this day you may wish to print out this reading so you can participate by reading these bold type parts.
