This weekend is everything for us.
In many ways, all our faith hinges on what we remember and celebrate over these next few days. Good Friday and Easter Sunday are not separate events, but one unified story.
Friday is where our sin was paid for once and for all, as Jesus’ sacrifice fully removed our sin and ended condemnation forever. By His blood, we have been forgiven completely and permanently. Sunday is where we receive His very life. Through the resurrection, we were not just forgiven but made new - united with Christ and brought into His life. Both are essential. Without Friday, there is no payment for sin. Without Sunday, there is no life, no resurrection, and no hope. But together, they tell the greatest story ever told.
This Friday at 7pm, we will gather for a special Good Friday service centered around the historic tradition of Tenebrae. The word “Tenebrae” means darkness or shadows, and this type of service has been practiced by the church since medieval times. Our time together will begin at 7pm and conclude around 8pm. I’ll be sharing a shorter message, we’ll take communion together, and we will walk through this meaningful tradition that helps us slow down and sit in the significance of what Jesus has done for us. Childcare will be available for children ages 4 and under. It will be a reflective and powerful time as we remember the significance of Jesus’ sacrifice.
Then Sunday comes, bringing with it the greatest news we could ever imagine. What looked like the end was not the end. Death did not win, sin did not win, and darkness did not win. Jesus is alive! So, this Sunday at 10am, join us as we celebrate the reality of the resurrection! This is a great opportunity to invite someone in your life who might be open to coming to church, especially on a day like Easter. You never know what God might do through a simple invitation!
It’s going to be a full and joyful morning. We’ll have Easter eggs for the kids, we’ll celebrate together as a church family, and we’ll conclude our series with a message called “Everything is Going to be OK.” I’d encourage you to get here a little early, as we’re expecting a full room.
I truly can’t wait to experience this weekend with you. It’s a reminder of everything we believe and everything we hold onto.
See you this weekend!
