You can join us this season for these meaningful holy week traditions.
Palm Sunday
April 13
Our 10am "Noisy Palm Sunday Service" includes extra music, kids waving palm branches, foot washing, art, and more as we begin the story of Holy Week. Come at 9:30am to hang out and participate in set up.
Egg Dying
Sat., April 19
10am to noon at the Parish House. Egg dyeing is not a Christian tradition, but it's just fun to do together. On Holy Saturday it is tradition to fast from food together while Jesus is in the grave.
Maundy Thursday
April 17
We'll be joining St. James Episcopal's congregation in their main building for this high church communion service at 7pm. (No separate service at the Parish House.)
Easter Sunrise
Sun., April 20
6:30am at The Ring (Bristol Waterfront Park). In this tradition we watch the sun rise and celebrate that Jesus is risen indeed. This service is led by several Bristol churches together each year.
Good Friday
April 18
6pm at the Parish House, this is a tenebrae service, so we start in candlelight and end in darkness. In this tradition, we remember Jesus going to the cross and the grave.
Easter Brunch
Sun., April 20
8 am - 10am at the home of Gary and Susan Alloway. Enjoy a potluck feast and much rejoicing after the sunrise service. An egg hunt will be held for all young children.
