Holy Week
Walking through Jesus’ last days with him
You can’t learn the mystery of Jesus’ death without performing it. During Holy Week, Jesus is walking towards his death and we are walking with him.

Join us as we welcome our Savior as King, as we inaugurate his Kingdom. We will greet him with palms as we declare “Hosanna,” which means “Help Us!”

Friday
Stations of the Cross and Tenebrae
Stations of the Cross – 12pm-3pm
This is a meditative prayer walk with Jesus to the cross. We do this in the neighborhood to help ourselves see the way of suffering love moving into our present reality. We want to enter into this way with Jesus in our time and place.
Tenebrae – 8pm
On the evening of Good Friday we gather together in darkness (In Latin, “Tenebrae”) to reflect on the death of Jesus like the disciples did after the crucifixion. Through a solemn remembrance using art and music, we reflect on Jesus last words on the cross in a room that steadily darkens, and symbolically enter the quietness of the tomb.
