Rev. Amanda will lead us in a unison prayer and extinguish the sixth and final Lenten candle as we journey into the shadows of Holy Week. Rev.

The First Church Choir will sing the anthem, &#8220;The Palms.&#8221; The service will transition from joy toward the sorrow of Jesus&#8217; final week as the Rev. Sydney Avent reads our second scripture reading from Mark 15:1-15 (Pilate hands Jesus over to be crucified). Rev. Amanda will preach the sermon. We will also share in the prayers of the people.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Join us at 10:30 in the sanctuary or\u00a0click here\u00a0to join us by Zoom on this Sunday of Palms &amp;
