Palm Sunday

Sunday, April 5, 2020
10:30 a.m.
 
We worship online today via Zoom. Our service will focus on the story of Palm Sunday as found in Matthew’s Gospel. Early in the service, we will encourage participants (especially our children) to act out the story, using a locally-sourced cedar branch to wave at home as Jesus enters Jerusalem. The sermon will also focus on the significance of Jesus entry into Holy Week. All are welcome!

Maundy Thursday

Thursday, April 9, 2020
7:00 p.m.
 
All ages in the congregation are invited to join together in community for online worship via Zoom as we explore Jesus’ invitations to his disciples to love and serve one another and the world. Our Maundy Thursday observance will include both foot (or hand) washing and the sacrament of Holy Communion. Participants will need to have a bowl and pitcher of water, as well as towels, for the foot (hand) washing, and some bread and milk or juice for communion. All are welcome!

Good Friday

Friday, April 10, 2020
10:30 a.m.
 
Our Good Friday worship will be convened via Zoom. During this service we will experience the Passion of Jesus through readings from the Gospel of Matthew, and “stay awake” with him through the suffering and injustice of the world. A gathering time for connection and “coffee time” before the service will begin at 10:00 a.m. and we will depart in silence at the close of the worship service when the Zoom meeting ends. All are welcome!

Easter Vigil

Saturday, April 12, 2020
7:30 p.m.
 
Join others in the Crossroads community for this deeply moving traditional service on the “eve” of Easter. Although several of the traditional components of this service will need to be adapted, we will still light the “new fire” (please have a candle ready to light during the service) and listen for the Word of God (through several readings from both Testaments). We will also still receive new members by letter of transfer and all will feast together at Christ’s table in the sacrament of Holy Communion (please have bread and milk or juice ready at home to participate in this part of the service). This service is typically very appropriate for all ages as there is lots of movement and different activities — we will retain the children-friendly aspects of this service as much as possible. All are welcome!

Easter Sunday Worship

Sunday, April 13, 2020
10:30 a.m.
 
We celebrate the power of love that triumphs over death on this Easter morning, with special music, prayer, and a sermon on Matthew’s resurrection account (for grown-ups), and with storytelling engagement and suggested activities for our children and youth. Our whole community will then experience a celebration of God’s “agape” (universal love) with a special meal shared in our various locations as we eat “comfort food” together. All are welcome!
