“He took our infirmities and bore our diseases.” Matthew 8: 17b

During Holy Week, we will continue to explore the Lenten Worship Series, “Holy Vessels.” Easter resurrection is the ultimate story of healing. This culminating moment of our worship series invites us to consider a commission from Christ to his disciples: to heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse lepers, and cast out demons. These are very things his disciples have seen him do and that we have sought to witness for our own lives in this Lenten season of recovery. What will we do with this commission? What passion has been piqued in our church that we can offer to our community beyond this moment as we continue to participate in the revival of the spirit of humanity? How will we address ongoing pain, ourselves “healed and yet still healing?”

All services of Holy Week will be broadcast and/or streamed at the time posted on the schedule. To watch on a television, turn to channels 7 or 1301 for Spectrum subscribers.
