5:45 pm Light Dinner | 6:30 pm Service

Ash Wednesday begins our journey into Lent. The readings, music, prayers, and imposition of ashes are meant to remind us of our mortality, and our need for God. We continue these traditions, marking ourselves for a season of contemplation, deepening our relationship with God as we ponder death, resurrection, and new life.

Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week. Our worship will center around the story of Jesus’ fraught but hopeful entry into Jerusalem. The day was tense and joyful, a juxtaposition of the anticipation of the long-awaited Messiah, and the dangerous reality that he was a threat to power. We will ground ourselves in the Spirit of the day, as it points us toward Christ’s passion and resurrection.

Maundy Thursday Supper | Thursday, April 2, 2026 | 6 - 7:15 pm | Narthex

Sign up here: LINK TBD

Maundy Thursday is the night of Holy Week that we remember the last supper Jesus spent with the disciples, before he was betrayed and arrested. Our Maundy Thursday Supper will be served with delicious Palestinian food (including other child-friendly options) at tables set with traditional items. This is a sensory experience! We'll do some simple hand-washing with oil (instead of foot-washing), singing, and readings. This dinner is meant to be a child-friendly option to learn more about Holy Week.

Good Friday worship will take us through the final words of Jesus with a dramatic service. The tone of worship will lead us to the betrayal, arrest, and death of Jesus with darkness, drumming, and stunning movement and music. It is a deeply emotional and participatory service.

Annually faith communities, businesses, and individuals collect more than $24,000 of school supplies to fill hundreds of backpacks! St. Paul's UCC is the host site once again this year! Click here to learn more!
