Every Sunday is a celebration of the Resurrection of Christ, but we are coming again to the time of year when we remember the detailed story of the last week of the Word as Flesh. Palm Sunday, we celebrate the triumphant entry of the King into Jerusalem and how quickly the people once again decided they wanted to be their own king. Thursday night we will by having a remembrance of the Last Supper by holding a Jewish Passover or Seder Meal. We will have the chance to experience this great remembrance of the Exodus story and how Jesus changed it forever. Friday will begin with a prayer vigil and include a noon service at Thornton Heights UMC to focus on the cross and Jesus' Death.
The celebration of the Resurrection begins Saturday night, 7pm at Clark UMC with an Easter Vigil service to see how this great work of God fits into the entire salvation history of the Bible. Sunday morning begins early at 6:15am at Fisherman's Point for our Easter Sunrise Service followed at about 7am with breakfast back at the Church.
The celebration continues with our Easter celebration in the Sanctuary at 10:30am. Christ has died, Christ is risen, Christ will come again! Come and share the solemnity, the joy and the excitement of this greatest of good news.
