Hope this season of Lent has been meaningful to you and that you have had the opportunity to spend some devotional time thinking about the life and death of Jesus and what that means to you and to the world.
Holy Week is upon us! I want to encourage each one of you to set this next week apart and to take advantage of the many opportunities for worship and contemplation.
Along with our Holy Week lunches at different churches in the community, please remember that here at Rockmart First Methodist, we have 3 meaningful services for you as you prepare for Easter.
First, this Sunday is Palm/Passion Sunday and our worship service will move from the victorious welcome of Jesus with shouts of hosanna and palm branches as he entered Jerusalem... to the dark passion he would face later that week. Following the service, we will eat lunch together and have an Easter Egg Hunt for all ages. Even adults will find eggs stuffed with goodies like a free car wash from Antonio!
Second,on Maundy Thursday, April 18, plan on attending the Maundy Thursday Seder Meal at 6:30 in the Fellowship Hall. This meal and service is so meaningful! I don't want you to miss it! It brings us up close and personal with Jesus and his disciples as they shared that last meal together.
And finally, on Good Friday, April 19 at 7PM, take the opportunity to come and sit in darkness for the Tenebrae service as you meditate on the passion of Jesus.
Being a part of as many of these Holy Week activities as possible is very important as you prepare yourself to wait during the long, long weekend for that time on Easter Sunday morning. Sunrise service will be held at 7:00am at Rose Hill Cemetery. Join us in our 11:00 AM worship service when we celebrate together the resurrection of Jesus.
If you have not taken part in these services before, I hope you will consider doing so this year. In order to sing Alleluia! we need to walk to the cross that comes before.
(If you would like to attend the Maundy Thursday meal, please contact the church office to let us know you are coming!)
Grace and Peace,
Martha
