Seder Dinner on Maundy Thursday
2025-03-06 08:00 - 2025-04-17 17:00
Seder Dinner Thursday, April 17 Check-in: 5:30 PM Dinner: 6 PM
The Seder is a traditional and communal dinner where the story of the Israelites’ exodus from Egypt and slavery is retold, with food playing a central role in the storytelling.
The Seder is an occasion for praise and thanksgiving, as well as for re-dedication to the idea of liberation—for our ancestors and for us, each and every day through Christ.
Join us as we share in this sacred tradition together. The cost is $10 per person. A light meal will follow.
Volunteers Needed! Sign-ups on patio after or in the church office.

Come join us now on Wednesdays for the Bible Study Group. Here’s what we will be studying in the coming weeks beginning October 22:
Galatians — the first book written in the New Testament — gives us the clearest picture of the gospel. It’s a letter that changed the world, shaping the hearts of countless believers. Martin Luther loved it so much he called it his “Katie,” after his beloved wife.
Join us for a five-week journey through this powerful letter as we explore the freedom Christ has given us — freedom from guilt, from legalism, and from trying to earn what’s already been freely given
Come rediscover the joy of the gospel and the life-changing grace of Jesus Christ.
