Our church celebrated the Holy Week of Easter, beginning with our Palm Sunday Service on March 25th. Our evening service on Maundy Thursday included Holy Communion. Our Sanctuary was open from 10am to 2:30pm for our Good Friday Prayer Vigil, a quiet time of prayer and reflection, followed by a Good Friday Service at 3:00pm.  We celebrated Easter Sunday starting with a sunrise service at 7:00am, followed by by a continental breakfast. At our Easter Resurrection Service at 10am, we decorated the cross with fresh flowers.
