Good Friday

For Christians, Good Friday is an important day of the year because it celebrates what we believe to be the most momentous weekend in the history of the world. 

Why do we call Good Friday “good,” when it is such a dark and bleak event commemorating a day of suffering and death for Jesus?  Ever since Jesus died and was raised, Christians have proclaimed the cross and resurrection of Jesus to be the decisive turning point for all creation. Paul considered it “of first importance” that Jesus died for our sins, was buried, and was raised to life on the third day, following what God had promised in the Scriptures (1 Corinthians 15:3).

On Good Friday, the Sanctuary will be open from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. for everyone to gather together to pray and meditate on Jesus' death upon the cross. The "Come & Go Reflection Time" is a self-guided event.

There will be materials available to aid you in your journey of Jesus to the Cross.  You are welcome to  come and stay as long as you wish.
