Holy Week Schedule

Palm Sunday -- March 28, 2010 (follows the Regular Worship Schedule)

We will celebrate Jesus triumphal entry into Jerusalem with special music that includes: "The Trumpet Shall Sound" from Handel's Messiah with trumpeter, Dennis Sackman and UCP’s Genesis and Adult choirs.

Maundy Thursday Service -- April 1, 2010 at 7:30p

On the Thursday before Easter, Christians around the world mark the Last Supper of Jesus. We call it Maundy Thursday from the Latin word for "mandate" or "command" because, at the Last Supper, Jesus gave several final commands to his disciples -- to love one another, to serve one another and to remember him through the breaking of the bread. 

We welcome you to share with us this powerful worship service. We will remember the final 24 hours of Jesus’ life on earth. We will be together with each other, as Jesus was with the disciples on their last night. We will begin with the servant ritual of foot washing that Jesus offered the disciples and continue with the Last Supper which we celebrate today as the Lord’s Supper, “as often as you do this do it in remembrance of me”.
