Holy Week is almost here!

As we enter the holiest week of the year, you are encouraged to spend a little time in thought, reflection, and prayer. We have a number of church service that you are welcome to participate in.


  • March 26th, 6:30 p.m. - Stations of the Cross

  • March 26th, 5:30 - 9:30 p.m. - 4th/5th Grade Retreat

  • March 27th, 10:30 a.m. - Reconciliation Service in Church

  • April 1st, 7:00 p.m. - Holy Thursday Liturgy

  • April 2nd, 1:00 & 7:00 p.m. - Good Friday Services

  • April 3rd, 8:00 p.m. - Holy Saturday Liturgy

  • April 4th, 8:15 & 10:15 a.m. - Easter Liturgies

All of these events are wonderful ways to observe this week. At Home you might want to eat a meal in candle light and talk about how important shared meals are (Jesus last meal). You might want to watch a movie or read the scriptures about the passion (Good Friday). On Holy Saturday you might want to prepare Easter eggs and talk about how eggs are a sign of new life. Perhaps you can share some of these symbols with other. What ever you do this Holy Week, be sure to pause and ponder the awesomeness of this story of our faith. It is truly an act of love by our God.
