Holy Week 2024

Join McEver Road United Methodist for Holy Week 2024

Holy Week 2024


Holy Week is the observance of the events that led Jesus on the journey to Resurrection for the whole world.  Over the course of a week, Jesus experiences betrayal, a trial, suffering, and death. But three days later, Sunday comes and Jesus walks out of the tomb changing everything!  Our story of brokenness changes into a story of redemption through Jesus.  Easter is about Jesus giving you and me a brand new start—a new beginning!  And it doesn’t matter who you are or where you’ve been, its God’s gift to you.


Palm Sunday - March 24, 2024

Palm Sunday is the Sunday prior to Easter Sunday, which observes Jesus’ “triumphal” entry into Jerusalem. Many people are gathered to celebrate Jesus as the Messiah (Savior ) because they have witnessed his miracles, heard his teachings, and experienced God in their midst. On this Sunday, we, too, give thanks and rejoice for all that God has done and is doing!  Join us at out our 11 a.m. worship experience as we remember the culmination of Jesus’ ministry and celebrate together! (This service will be live-streamed)


Holy Thursday - March 28, 2024

Holy Thursday (sometimes called Maundy Thursday) observes Jesus with his disciples around the table of the Last Supper. We emphasize Jesus modeling humility, sacrifice, and servitude through his act of foot washing amongst his disciples. We learn and remember that Jesus came to serve and not to be served. Join us at 6:30 p.m. for a simple, in-person service with a teaching, reflection time, singing, hand washing, and Communion. (This service will be live-streamed)


Good Friday - March 29, 2024

Good Friday is the observance of Jesus’ betrayal and trial, which culminates with his suffering and death on the cross. As you can imagine, this observance is a somber one. It’s during this time that we are meant to reflect and remember Jesus’ sacrifice for us all. 

Download our reflection guide online, where you will find readings, prompts, meditations, and prayer. You’re welcome to use this guide as part of your devotion at any point throughout the day.


EASTER - March 31, 2024

Following Jesus’ death, three days later, he rises and walks out of the tomb alive! Jesus’ resurrection signals to us a new beginning! No longer does our story end in death but, instead, raises into new life in Christ. The same power that raised Jesus from the dead seeks to raise us also so that we can experience freedom, joy, and an abundant life here and now. Easter Sunday is about celebrating Jesus giving you and me a brand new start! And it doesn’t matter who you are or where you’ve been, it’s God’s gift for you.


Join us on Easter Sunday in the following ways:


Easter Sunrise - Join us at 7 a.m. for a simplified, in-person, outdoor worship experience as we read the Easter story, reflect, and rejoice in the good news of Jesus’ resurrection dawning as the sun rises on this sacred day. Afterward, you are invited to join us for a church-wide breakfast. (This service will NOT be live-streamed)


Easter Service - Join us at 11 a.m. for song, prayer, the Easter story, and the celebration of Jesus’ resurrection and what it means for us today. (This service will be live-streamed)
