Maundy Thursday, April 14th, 7:00 p.m., join us for “A Seder: The Savior’s Meal.” Children are invited to participate as we discover the meaning of the last meal Jesus ate with his disciples and friends before his arrest, trial, conviction, and crucifixion. Nyadia Thorpe sings “Steal Away.” Communion is served. Childcare provided, age 4 and under for all services.
Good Friday, April 15th, 7:00 p.m. This worship service commemorates Jesus’ Passion. Pastor Jeff Thorpe preaches “The Pressures of Moving Forward” as Jesus prayed in Gethsemane Garden and had two all-night trials before the religious and political authorities. Brittany Haywood sings “All My Trials” and the MEN lead us in “Were You There” as we carry the cross outside to remember all Jesus has done for us.
Holy Saturday, April 16th, 6:00 a.m. to midnight. Make your reservation to come to the FPCD Sanctuary and pray for our nation, our city, our neighborhoods, our families, our church, the Ukrainians, and any others you feel moved to pray for. Books on prayer are available to guide you, and a journal for you to share your prayer.
