March 2024 Newsletter

Dear Friends:

     March has many things going on, as the month concludes with the work of Holy Week. Indeed, the final day of the month is Easter Sunday. The service that day will be characterized by a lot of music, among other things.

      Holy Week begins with Palm Sunday on March 24, and everybody should be prepared to bear a palm for that day’s worship.   

     Maundy Thursday, on March 28, Will be marked with “agape meal” and communion in Gehman Hall, starting at 6:00. The meal will be a true potluck, with the sacrament of communion taking place during the meal, in manner in which the sacrament was frequently observed in the early church as the faith was first beginning to spread.

      All are of course welcome for all of these celebrations. While our church is not holding a service for Good Friday, you are encouraged to find a local church that is holding one and mark that holy day in worship.

     The work of the transition group is accelerating. If you have ideas about the move towards a new pastor, why aren’t you working with them?
