Join us MaundyThursday, March 28 at 6:30pm for Service of Meal, Communion, and Footwashing.
The meal is The Women’s Fellowship-Homemade Vegetable-Beef-Chicken Soup,
Pimiento Cheese and Chicken Salad Sandwiches
Bread from Rabble and Rise Bakery
This is family friendly and accommodating to those with physical limitations. All ages can participate. Typically, folks wear shoes or sandals, easy to remove. Foot-washing is optional, you can still participate in the service even without taking off your shoes. I encourage you just to show up, and allow the Holy Spirit to guide you.
During this time, we do as our Lord and Savior did as told to us in John 13, "On the evening he was betrayed, Jesus poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples feet with the towel that was wrapped around him."
We will conclude the service by remembering we remember Jesus' arrest and crucifixion.

The Stations Of Peter: On the Way Of Sorrow
Spend 20 minutes on a self-guided walk to follow Jesus to the cross looking through the eyes of Peter. Imagine how you might have acted and behaved had you been one of Jesus’ followers during the final days of his life.
Public Welcome

A Prayer for this Palm Sunday,
"God, where do we begin? This world needs so much saving. Save us from our greed, from our addiction to violence. Save us from the arrogance to assume we always know best. Save us from hatred and vitriol. Save our hearts from complacency and apathy. Save us.
Save me. Hosanna! Amen."

We are grateful to The Charity League of Lexington for providing new packages of boys and girls underwear for our Clothing Ministry!! New undies can be quite pricey for a family. Often, kiddos will go without. Thanks to The Charity League, many families will have these basic needs met. ... See MoreSee Less

Many thanks!
Many thanks to the Charity League for helping fill a need that most of us take for granted.
Thank you Charity League
This Lent, we are focusing on the life and faith of one of Jesus’ most famous disciples. In Peter, we see a person who is both steadfast and unsteady, a dear friend and a betrayer, a follower and a wanderer. In Peter, we often see ourselves. By following Peter’s journey, we watch the story of Jesus unfold through the eyes of a very normal human trying to figure it all out—just like us.
This Lent, we will look for ourselves in the stepping stones of Peter’s story. We will reflect on the stages of our own faith journeys as well as who and what has shaped us along the way. As we wander, let us tune our hearts to sing God’s grace. May we rest in streams of mercy, never ceasing.
