Hannah Long-Higgins will serve as our Lenten candle liturgist, extinguishing the sixth and final Lenten candle as we journey into the shadows of Holy Week. Mary Hayes will offer the song of response on violin. Our children will offer a reader&#8217;s theater of the first scripture reading. The choir will sing the anthem, &#8220;Scatter the Joy.&#8221; The service will transition from joy toward the sorrow of Jesus&#8217; final week as Lynaya Morris reads our second scripture about his arrest. Rev. Amanda will preach the sermon. We will also enjoy prayers of the people. All hymns will be sung congregationally. Join us for one of the holiest Sundays of the year! We will have palms for everyone.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n\t\t<div id=\"wppdfemb-frame-container-6784\" style=\"-webkit-overflow-scrolling:auto;\">\n\t\t\t<iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.firstuccdc.org\/?url=https:\/\/www.firstuccdc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/April-10__22_Worship-Folder.pdf&#038;title=April%2010__22_Worship%20Folder&#038;index=1&#038;pdfID=6784\"\n\t\t\t\tid=\"wppdf-emb-iframe-6784\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-pdf-index=\"1\"\n\t\t\t\tclass=\"pdfembed-iframe nonfullscreen\"\n\t\t\t\tstyle=\"border:none;width:100%;max-width:100%;min-height:1000px\"\n\t\t\t\tscrolling=\"yes\">\n\t\t\t<\/iframe>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Worship with us this Sunday of Palms &amp;
