As part of our Holy Week experience, we will gather daily at noon for a 30-minute service of reflection in the chapel.  Monday - Thursday, our Pastor, Steve Wells, will lead us in reflecting on Jesus’ journey to the Cross with perspectives on the Gospel story from his recent trip to the Holy Land.  Good Friday's noon service will be a musical reflection by organist, Daryl Robinson on stations of the cross.  Following the services, stay for a box lunch in the garden.  Bring a friend!

Westmoreland Chapel

A service of communion, scripture, music and prayer recalling the darkness of the crucifixion.

Saturday, April 23
9:30 am - Children's Easter Celebration
Sanctuary

This annual family tradition begins in the sanctuary where we will hear a story from Dave the Donkey about what he thought was going to happen to the King as they rode into Jerusalem before the first Easter.  Children should bring a basket because after the story, families are invited outside to hunt for as many eggs as their basket will hold.  Each child (5th grade and younger) will receive a bag filled with goodies.

Sunday, April 24
8:30 & 11:00 am - Glorious Easter Worship
Sanctuary

We celebrate Resurrection Sunday, praising from the depths of our souls Christ who died and rose again.  Joyous worship will be filled with Hallelujahs to the Risen Lamb!
