Join us for a celebration of Tenebrae on the evening of Maundy Thursday, March 28, at 7:00 pm. Maundy Thursday is the Thursday before Easter Sunday, and this distinctive and moving service helps us to recall the events of the Last Supper.
On Maundy Thursday, we share the sacrament of Communion so all can participate in the experience. Here in Oldtown, our bread is gluten-free, and our cup is filled with simple grape juice, so none will have reason to feel excluded. All are welcome at the table, regardless of age, faith, church affiliation, or life experience. In the words of our denomination, “No matter who you are or where you are on life’s journey, you are welcome here.”
After the service of Communion, we light candles and sing and pray by candlelight. As the last song fades, the darkness recalls the days when Jesus was taken away to be crucified.
You can always expect an extravagant welcome and more when you join us for worship. We look forward to seeing you on Maundy Thursday.
